    It all depends how fast you can run.......and how good your navigation is..........

    I've not done a 'mini' before ~ just full blown MM's, so looking forward to this one. Should be a doddle without having to carry all the usual MM kit.

    Not really sure why they call it a 'mini mountain marathon'. Probably a marketing thing
    The navigation is much easier (it's about route choice more than micro-nav), the distances much shorter, and you don't have to carry much. Perfect!

    It worked for us. Maybe one of you dibbed but the other didn't?

    Great event considering the last minute change of venue, I guess they must have had the course pre-planned as a bad weather backup.

    We were pipped at the post for the mixed pairs league, by a single control - one which we knew at the time we should have gone for - luckily they were also quicker than us so even if we'd gone for it we'd have come 2nd. Probably our last chance for glory, next year we'll be in the Vets class which seems to be full of fit people!

    your poss right, altho id still like to hold that it was the cp or dibber rather than one of us! we got completely lost looking to cp 16 and lost lots of time, i think we were last mixed vets team in, so any change in position will be improvement!

    will hopefully be back next year, was decent day when it warmed up a bit, bit of road running though which is never good for my fell shoes!

    No problems with dibbing CP11 either.
    Excellent events, on the list for next year already.
