BRISTOL ACTUARIES' WALKING CLUB

The Bristol Actuaries' Walking Club is a group of actuaries, their families  and friends in the Bristol area who enjoy walking together.

 

Below is a list of walks undertaken by the walking club.

 

2008    2007    2006    2005    2004    2003    2002    2001    2000    1999    1998    1997    1996    1995    1994    1993    1992    1991    1980-90

 

Notes to this list

This list has been produced by David Purchase and is reproduced with grateful thanks.

The distance walked is given to the nearer 0.1 mile, and the height gained to the nearer 25 feet.  Times in hours and minutes are:  Actual, from start to finish;  Adjusted, deducting the durations of all significant stops;  and Naismith, calculated at a rate of 4 km (2 miles) per hour and adding 1 minute per 10m (33 feet) of height gained.  (This is a variant of Naismiths original formula.)  The ratio is that of the Adjusted to the Naismith times, and the next column gives a terrain code for the Meet:  M = mountainous;  I = intermediate;  P = pastoral;  and D = Dinner!  In data columns, entries in italic are more approximate than others.
