Nice race report.Originally Posted by zephr
I was impressed with your finish, too. I was the rather wet bloke taking numbers at the finish, thinking "Hmm, a Glossopdale runner that I don't recognise - wonder who that is?" Now I know!

yep, that was Zephr! I'm his other half that took the photos.
any glossopdale runners - I think I got pics of most of you. if you want a copy let me know yr number and email and I'll send it over to you. I'm afraid the ones from the start are pretty much just yr backs!!
There was someone at the end taking pictures?
I had NO idea!
And I had no idea there was a second person in hot pursuit trying quite that hard until I hit the beginning of the final funnel and realised there was not one but two sets of pounding feet and lungs rapidly homing in on me. Perhaps you could shout me a warning next time?! Well run, Zephr.
I honestly couldnt have shouted, I could barely speak! I was trying to catch you 2 all the way down the path- for about the last 800 metres, and had all but resigned myself to not catching either of you.
Hi all what a absolute fantastic short race, crazy start and some good acents and brill decents. Also thanks to the organisers and the cake at the end . forgot to mention meeting green flash, how can you not miss them shorts lol ;-]
One of my favourites this. The climb up from Dimpus Clough always proves "interesting" ...
A prior engagement (!) has kept me away this year, but well done to all finishers, especially you Mr Green Flash !
Saturday was the first time I’ve raced MF. Really enjoyed it. The run down from South Head is great fun.
Thanks to everyone involved. I was very happy to see Geoff and his clipboard at the end of the race.
Thanks to all involved, organisers, marshalls and racers. Particularly thanks to guy who knew the route and prevented me running off course into the woods near the end instead of down the grassy hill! Only my third fell race so was a delight to finally be exposed to the kind of stuff I've only read about - horizontal rain, insane ascents, enjoyable descents and getting lost. All that for a few quid. Brilliant. :thumbup:
Results are now up on the URL below. Thanks to Mark Boulton for compiling these.
Cheers, Steve
