Fleetwood's Mountain Log: August 2004
http://johnfleetwood.blogspot.com/2004_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 10, 2004. Knoydart Round, August 2004. 55 miles, 26,500 feet, 27 hours 40 mins, solo unsupported on sight circuit of Knoydart's rough hills. This route is one of the roughest you'll find anywhere in Britain with big ascents and descents following one after another. I completed the round after driving up to the dam at quoich, sleeping for a few hours and then setting out alone not having reccied the route. 27 hours later I returned, had a cat nap and drove home again.

Fleetwood's Mountain Log: July 2004
http://johnfleetwood.blogspot.com/2004_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 10, 2004. Welsh 24 Hour Round, 7/8 July 2004. 63 miles, 26,700 feet, 23 hours and 20 minutes, solo unsupported. The inclusion of the Northern Carneddau 3000 foot peaks adds a further 7 miles and 1300 feet and about 2 hours. Wanting to amend the classic Paddy Buckley Round in North wales I set about devising an alternative route but logical route that encompassed Crib Goch. It took me three goes, but in the end I managed such a route, ending in dramatic circumstances.

Fleetwood's Climbing and Other Tales: January 2001
http://climbingandothertales.blogspot.com/2001_01_01_archive.html
Fleetwood's Climbing and Other Tales. Sunday, January 28, 2001. A Miracle on Lochnagar, January 2001. Parallel A Grade (III,4) with Jeff Brand. Miracle is not too strong a word for what transpired on a fateful January day on Lochnagar. An ordinary climb became quite extraordinary by virtue of the circumstances and I still don't know how I survived a bombardment which should have knocked me off my perch as surely as a car falling on my head. Full Story. Posted by John Fleetwood at 12:22 PM.
