    No Jim holds the MID WINTER record @ 18. 43 I think it was.

    I've not received an email (you may have emailed Morgan but he's away ATM) but if you check http://www.bobgrahamclub.org.uk/index.php?page=winter you should be able to determine who it is.

    According to the link it's 20.39 in 2011 by Jim Mann again seems a bit strange his mid winter (oh and it is 18.18 sorry Karen) is quicker than his winter round can you confirm this is the record please Bob, many thanks. Carn't remember who I sent email too know?

    Those are the correct times. Jim did his second winter round explicitly to remove any doubt about the fastest time.

    The distinction between "winter" and "mid-winter" is fairly arbitrary as you could have metre deep drifts and blizzards in mid March and benign but cool conditions at Christmas but generally the mid-winter dates are likely to be tougher.

    There seems to be some confusion caused by this page, http://www.bobgrahamclub.org.uk/index.php?page=winter

    It suggests that Jim's 18:18 was a (MW) Mid winter round, but I thought that the 1st of December counted as winter, not mid winter. It doesn't matter a jot to me, but I think it is the root of the confusion here.

    That 'MW' must be a typo, as I don't think by any definition Jim's record round of 18:18 on 1/12/13 would be a mid-winter one.

    His write up is here:

    My mistake - probably a copy and paste error. I'll sort it out shortly.

    Edit: now fixed
