Shepherd's Skyline

I have missed the photos thankfully

Anyone recognise the lady 'whipper in' on last pic of the 2nd set?

First ever women's winner of the 3 Peaks - Jean Lochhead

Attachment 804..

Just read Funzles lot on the previous page.

In my view it was unfair of the race official to have sent a runner off to fetch his cag, then fail to inform the race starter so that they could check he'd made the start line.

After all, we waited for those 2 late entrants.

Too late now of course, but one to bear in mind, i feel.

The official was doing his job. The starter - ME - did know he'd sent them off to get a top. I insisted that they go and get a top - it was their own fault that they went up to start without anything as it was clearly signed at registration and was announced by me several times. I cannot believe that anyone turns up at a race in NOVEMBER thinking they'll not have to carry anything - it's the first thing I find out when I register. I delayed the start several minutes as it was. It would be unfair on the rest of the runners who did have the required kit to hold the start any longer. :mad:

fair answer mate.. no arguments !

With all due respect to those who organise races, I think we should have the right to disagree. If the circumstances were as are described I think Batman was wrong.

I think "wrong" is the wrong word to use.
