    hard one.

    The Ben
    Jura
    Ireland British Champs race
    Borrowdale

    Would be my favourites, but Carneddau (first race win) and Peris, great local race, would be up there.

    My best performances would be Jura (3:42) Ben (1:45) and Borrowdale, top 20 finish.

    My favourite race of 2008 was winter hill race closely followed by Waugh's Well. Maybe I am a sadeist but I love winter hill race. Roll on February for another 2 hours of bog and hills.

    Didn't do many races last year but my favourite race of 2008 was Helvellyn. Very windy day, awesome final descent and superb cakes afterwards. Would definitely recommend this cracking little race.

    My favourite race in 2008 had to be Great Whernside, a proper fell race. This was closely followed by Ben Nevis, Burnsall, Hodder Valley show and Flower Scar. I would recommend all these events.

    Fav race- Tanky's in the snow and ice

    Worst race- my performance (or utter lack of it) in my leg of the FRA relays. Felt horrible all the way round

    Fav event overall- Highlander MM. Superb location, a very kind and willing last-minute stand-in partner who proved to be great company over the weekend. Real ale, food and dancing at the mid-camp.
    First run then beer. If no run then proceed directly to beer.

    Worst by a mile was Three Shires. Very ill on last climb and all way to finish. Very dehydrated. Own fault. Was loving it until that point and going really well (for me).

    Other than that, only others were Pendle Cloughs and Tour of Pendle, both brilliant!!
