A few non-fell races coming up next weekend, Wilmslow half, Liverpool half, Wakefield 10K, Coniston 14, Ackworth Half, Wirral 5K... what are people here doing? I'll be at Wakefield personally, looking forward to it...

You should be at Fiensdale on Saturday. It is in your club fell championship!
I did Wakefield years ago because they reckoned it was the fastest course in Europe. It wasn't, it was very twisty in places. It got a reputation because a Kenyan ran 27.57 in 1999. It now gets over 1000 runners because of this but last year's winning time was over 32 min. A few courses have got dubious reputations like this. Alsager 5 and The Four Villages Half Marathon to name two.
Sorry for all that! See you at Fiensdale!
Yeah I did the Wakefield 10K last year - ran an unspectacular time, but enjoyed it. The reason the winning time was over 32:00 was that the National 12-stage relays at Birmingham were on the same weekend. I'm just aiming to beat last year's time on Sunday.
Enjoy your Fell Race Swoop
