Darren Holloway, a local runner who was runner-up in the Parwich Panoramic 5 in 2011, tragically died this weekend whilst taking part in the Ian Hogson Fell Race in Patterdale, Cumbria.
Darren was only 42, and he was a bit of a local hero to all of us who tried to run a bit. He was second in Parwich behind Chris Nicoll in our 2011 run, and third this year, when I had the privilege of presenting him with trophies for that, and for best Over 40’s veteran.
Daz always had something nice to say about Parwich in his blog “Laid Back Fell Runner”. Not only was he seriously fast; he was a lovely man and true gentleman, who loved the sport and the mountains with a passion. He will be sadly missed by all of us who only remember seeing his smiling face on the start line, and his heels thereafter.
