    Yes if you only intend the 5 min jog to the start for your warm up.

    Don't tell me everyone's got lost in the snow! Or are they still drinking Rhino's champers?

    Just got back about half an hour ago. The champagne was lovely. You should have been there lightweight.

    Also, where was Swoop?

    Many thanks to all involved in the organisation & smooth "running" of this event. My first fell race and first ever race longer than 10k and I loved every second (even if there were over 5000 of them!)
    Best wishes

    Sorry. My left eye went all bloodshot last night and is still the same. The whole of the white area is red.
    I didn't think it was wise to go running on what was likely to be a cold and windy moor.
    I did send my substitute, Sandra. Didn't she turn up?

    The eye sounds nasty! It was incredibly cold and windy.

    Who's Sandra? Or are you having me on?

    Swoop, don't worry about the eye....completely benign. JJ, did you run or marshal? Either way, top marks to you!

    Registration and time keeping. It was incredibly fecking freezing. How do people run in that kind of weather?

    I think you Welsh people should come and sample some of the Yorkshire races sometime.
