Ovenden Fell Race

[mudlugger]

Gutted, found out this morning that there is a reservoir called Ogden reservoir just outside of Blackburn, unforunately i discovered this because i spent most of this morning driving round it trying to find the fell race, hence my no show at the race at ogden reservoir, just off from the A629, gutted, gutted , gutted

Sorry to hear that s-f. Maybe next time eh.

I think we must be twins seperated at birth given we have the same injury issues, I now have stabbing pains up my ankles when I walk, it was fun taking the dogs out just now.

I intend to be there on monday see how it goes, am cyclo crossing tommorrow, this is part of my plan to gently ease back into racing and training after 5 low milege and minimal racing in order to cure my injuries

Only if the mother was in labour for a decade between us

Mines more hot pokers in the side of my foot But on the plus side it is better than after Calderdale Way so on the mend. Never been one for patience though/.

Done this one for the last couple of years, its a good little race. Can't make it this year cos I'm still recovering from man flu.
Suprised to see Brummy John interested in this, didnt think the boys in black ventured out of the borough of Rochdale these days

It were £1 fer a cupper tay an £2.50 fer a bleedin chip butti. Think iyl stay in lancisher in fewcher.

Nice race tho, enjoyed it. I photographe the results just in case although many didn't all come out very well.

Thanks for all the positive comments folks... Glad you enjoyed the race.

Judging by the conversations overheard near the finish area, lots of you did.

Scouse_fellrunner, the grid reference is in the calendar entry which is also on the homepage of this website. Sorry you didn't make it

Brummy John, I don't sell the food at the pub or set the prices. You all had the choice friend. (Hope that comment won't put anyone off coming in future!!)

Anyway, cheers everyone and Happy New Year.

But like I said today at the cross, always good to set up excuses (like a 21.5 miler the day before)........nutter
