Club members are prolific race organisers, and are always looking for volunteers to marshal – it’s a great way to see what fell running is all about and meet club members. MDC enters Men’s and Women’s teams into many local races, as well as events further afield such as the FRA Fell Relays. Look out for posts on facebook, and you’ll find the race calendar on the WFRA website. The team kit is White, Green and Red… or Grey, Green and Red if you’ve ever worn it for more than one race.
John is the figurehead on the prow of the good ship MDC. He's also the man to go to if you want an MDC vest. This year he's raking in the prizes in the MV60 category, so is currently awash with socks and cheap bottles of wine. Just don't ask him to make a speech...
MDC's new Men's Captain, Matt is a recent convert to the club, but by dint of being really very fast, he makes a perfect leader. He can be a tricky person to find, either posing awkwardly holding various items of silverware, or bounding off at the front miles ahead of you. If there's anything you'd like to say to him, maybe it's just easiest to email him here...
Joining MDC was one of the first things Donna did during lockdown 2020! Having met most of the MDC members on zoom quizzes she firmly established herself as part of the club. She would love to hear from any ladies who are thinking of joining us for a run or two ....
When he's not running, mountain biking and kayaking across entire countries with his adventure racing team, Gary is the person to talk to for all new MDC members.
With an international-standard orienteer to navigate our Tuesday night runs, you can be guaranteed to run through the gnarliest batch of brambles, scrambles and mud to be found in South Wales.
Every week, the MDC Tuesday night run ends up in a pub, and it's Simon's job to find us the cheapest curry and best pint the hills can offer.
Mark and Alice are the MDC Welfare Officers. If you need some help, get in touch...
With the MDC membership fee fixed at £5 per annum, it's Andy's job to count the coppers, and tell us how little we have each year.
We found Martyn running in the dark on the Garth, and he now looks after the website. If there's anything up with it, or something you'd like to add, get in touch!
