While most of the country was preparing to party on the eve of the new Millenium in 1999, Nigel Jenkins of Axe Valley Runners had a different sort of celebration in mind. In horrendous weather he was out on Dartmoor, southern England's most remote and open space, notching up the first completion of a new round.

The Donnington Way is a 62 mile walk linking the pubs of the Donnington Brewery in a circular path through rural Gloucestershire. With stunning views, rough terrain and good beer

The main locations of the route, starting from Stow-on-the-Wold are Longborough, Ganborough, Lower Swell, Great Barrington, Naunton, Guiting Power, Kineton, Ford, Snowshill, Stanton, Willersey, Moreton-in-Marsh, Little Compton, Broadwell, Stow-on-the-Wold. 

The large radio tower cube at the top of Mount Umunhum is visible from San Jose and surrounding areas.  The idea of this route is to run from the Bay (Alviso Marina County Park) to the top of the mountain.  The destination should be visible for much of the way.

It's a surprisingly straightforward route description: Guadalupe River Trail bike path, a couple of streets over to Meridian Ave, then a long way south on Meridian to the Mine Hill trailhead (Almaden Quicksilver park).  Take trails all the way up to the top.

The Medway Valley Walk follows the River Medway from Tonbridge to the coastal town of Rochester. From the starting point the path visits many places of interest in the Medway valley including East Peckham, Yalding, Nettlestead, Maidstone, Aylesford, Burnham Marshes, Holborough Marshes and Wouldham.
