My V60 prize from the Horwich Tri was a pair of calf sleeves - no they aren't leg warmers for a young bovine, they are support socks for athletes (who? me?).
They're white (I'd ordered coloured), so highly suitable for the fells - not.
As you may have realised, I'm not a great one for kit, and these don't specially grab me. I was planning to give them a try, but the OSH said I wasn't allowed out, looking like my legs are bandaged - so they are up for exchange for two bottles of strong (anything over 5% abv) beer.
They fit a calf circumference of between 32 and 38 cm and offer:- "optimum performance, maximum muscle stabilization and improved coordination of movement".

Please form an orderly queue.

This is the on-line journal of a small ill-defined group of mostly geriatric runners who share a love of the fells. It also covers a sub-group, best described as drinkers with a running problem, who struggle to combine dwindling athletic ability with an increasing thirst for cheap alcohol. A sort of "Last of the Summer Whine" (sic) in Walshes. Posting limited to registered contributors, but comments welcome.
