Re: Cragg Vale 2011 - Weds 29
I'm not sure about the merits of lots of marmite or other yeast based foodstuffs, but Tesco or Boots kids insect repellent is pretty good for midges and not too stingy. I seem to recall the route being pretty clear to follow last year (although as a confirmed mid-packer I had a good number of people to follow!)

That was brilliant fun. Thanks to CVFR, organisers, marshalls etc.

And yet I still didn't spot you! One day :wink:
The positive being I was ahead of Mrs Stagger who I wholly expected to be running with tonight!!!
A cracking little race, loved the bogs, Avon Skin So Soft (I'm not an agent) kept me midge free if a little pungent!! Thanks to all :thumbup:

Mrs.Stagger pointed you out, you were well in front on the climb and never saw you after that, good running Livi:thumbup:

Good to meet you too Steve.
Bog diving for my lost shoe was a new experience. Quite a laugh. All thoughts of racing went out the window.
Re: Cragg Vale 2011 - Weds 29
It was good to see everyone :)
I barely recognised The Grandmaster....Steve I think you've run off half your body mass!
I forgot to use my midge repellant! :rolleyes:

Good to see you too Stef, looking well after your troubles, I've only lost about 3 pounds since you last saw me, most of that went on midge repellent!
