i'll be at Holme Moss on sunday, as will Mr Rob Furness.
I guess I'll not bother calculating my points then, Daz? :o Good luck on the Macc Forest 5. The Wizard 5 tonight in Alderley Edge (put on by Wilmslow) would be another good 'un to go for. I did it last year and it was ace.
For July my events are Osmotherley Phoenix, White Peak Walk (they do allow runners), Gravy 6 (possibly) and Lakeland 50. Points from Osmotherley work out at 47 (me 7:21, winner 4:48). I think I'll hold off until after WPW on Saturday in the hope of something a little better. ;)
Speaking of which, I'll take 82 points please. Winner 2:41:38, me 3:10:44 :)

a modest 56 for me at Holme Moss.
Nearer the back then the front for the first time in a long while. Must try harder!
next up, Burnsall. with a possible Lake District race in between.
well I've done 4 races this month but the best is my 7th place in the Trunce won by Shaun Dimelow, all the others were won by Andy Swift who came second in this race?
any way my time was 27.54 and Shauns 25.54
giving me a respectable 93% whoop. still got more races to come including another Trunce
Not sure if I should include my only 'race' this month as I ended up only doing the 26 miler at Osmotherley Phoenix. Looking at winner's time - if he'd kept up same pace for the remaining 7 miles he'd have finished outside the top 10 of the 33, about 25 mins down, while (and an even bigger if) if I kept the same pace I would have finished in 7.17 with 48 points as opposed to the 60 points I'd get based on 26 mile results alone - winner 246 mins, me 345 mins.
IDP is the first to register 7 scores - I've put his January score in brackets to indicate that it has been "dropped" from the calculation of his total - of course he is still free to try to improve on 93 this month!
Multiterrainer - dont' see why we can't allow your 60 points!
I registered 55 points at Macc Forest on Wednesday evening - although this is my best score of the year so far, I was disappointed with my time and am thinking that maybe short races aren't my forte atm... so I'm going to try a couple of Mediums to see if I'm any better at those! (namely Turnslack & Crowden Horseshoe)

I've got a score for July. Ingleborough Fell Race. The winner was Simon Bailey at 48.08 (2888 seconds). I was a trifle slower at 68.59 (4139 seconds) soooo....I think that means I get 57points? (I rounded it up from 56.67. I need all the help I can get:wink: )
Hes - I've put your 57 pts on the board, but you now need to beat 59 to improve your total...
I got 53 pts at Turnslack, so no improvement, then sidestepped the whole issue of how to score orienteering events by not doing the Dark & White event last night (due to car probs :thunbdown: )
I've still got Crowden Horseshoe on Sunday as my last chance for July glory...

Cheers Daz, of course I will be expecting a high score at Borrowdale :w00t: Ha ha. (really hope I don't get lost!). I'm not going to Rydal today as I am saving myself for Stolly's BGR attempt and I've missed most of the Esk valley summer series due to various reasons but I intend to do the winter series. What I'm looking for are some fun fell races which nobody fast knows about....
I was hoping for a decent score last night at Goyt's Moss. However, not only did Lloyd turn up to ruin my points, but Steve Vernon turned up to beat Lloyd by 3 minutes and set a new course record. I'll have to use points from another race I think. It's 77 if I don't manage to beat it for the rest of July.
71 points for me from last Saturday's Ingleborough fell race. Me 61:54 and winning time 48:08
Had to miss all intended engagements through April-July because of injury problems, but have begun training again and can run 2 days back to back now without discomfort :) so onwards and upwards...probably start off at Gribdale Gallop in early August.... :)
Kentmere has been my highest score this month-winner 5940-me 6862= 85
Ignore my last post, Did Crowden Horseshoe yesterday. Winner 3899. Me 4362=91:thumbup:
Rev - hope you get back racing soon :)
Mole - I make that 88 points (sorry!)
50 pts for me at Crowden, so no improvement - probably won't be doing many races in August apart from LTOB, will be interesting to see how many I get for that!

Cracoe (Bofra)
Winner 1317 me 1942 diff 625, does that give me 53 points???
How did I miss the May one?
Coniston Gullies winner 885 me 1686 diff of 801 so is that 9 points for me in May or has the deadline gone??
No worries Daz-like keeping you on your toes:wink:
pity I can't include tonights race, it's an open fell race but not in the FRA list so it doesn't count...:(
Due to other commitments I could not take part in the Pen Y Fan or Fan Y Big races.
I will be up for the Brecon Beacon race on the 11 Aug though.
All - GET THOSE JULY RACES DECLARED ASAP...
Stagger - go on then! but if it'd've been 90 pts as opposed to 9 it might've had to go to a vote! having said that, it's enough to see you just sneak above me (doh!)

Thanks Daz.
I think mid 50's is my Max, unless no one of any quality shows up and hurts their ankle on the way. (Might get a 60 then)
Maybe build in an age and weight grade or even waist size. Then I would fancy top 5.
Today's hideous performance at Borrowdale only notches me 56 points, so I think I'll have to find another race for this month....
Doesn't count? What about the LDWA events and others that aren't in the FRA list? Daz, this may need your considered judgement for Mr Dark Peak.
For my July events can I claim the White Peak Walk (LDWA-type 26+ miler frequented by runners)? I managed a slower than expected 5:00. Winning time was 4:00, which I calculate earns 75 points. Failing that it'll be the Osmotherley Phoenix 33.
For August my events are Cracken Edge fell race, Dovedale Dipper, Brownlee Olympic Gold Run, Long Tour of Bradwell, Eccles Pike fell race (possibly), Glossop Marathon Relay (solo, possibly).
Nick - have you worked out which of Cracken Edge and Dovedale Dipper give you the best points so far...?
wrt to IDP's race, it's really up to Ian to claim it if he thinks it's justifed - I suspect it's a Dark Peak race that is open to others, but in reality very few non Dark Peak turn up, is that right?
I expect very few points from Long Tour Of Bradwell, so am going to try to squeeze in Pilgrims Cross to boost my August showing...

possibly racing Bradwell tonight if not theres the trunce on Monday
AAARGH I forgot to declare my races on here for about 3 months ...
August result for me at Y Garn.
Winner (ifan richards ) did it in 29.41, I did 36.28 making a difference of 407 seconds compared to a winner's time of 1781 giving 77 points I hope...
....... so am going to try to squeeze in Pilgrims Cross to boost my August showing...

See, you there then (well, except I won't recognise you!). I'm hoping to do Pilgrim's cross for August too.
Brownlees Gold run
Winner 10.29 Stagger 15.09 by my calcs = 56 points (best of year for me)
