Hi all. After all this bloody recceing and training, yes you guessed it i`m injured and to make thing worse the family have given me there lurgey. So a space is going begging. From a very dissapointed Mark Bartley no 114. Hope this gets used up and find the relevant organisers. Have a good race.
NOOOOOOOOO! Mark, I'm really sorry to hear that.
See you for a club run soon.
... and he doesn't mean Sealstones ... he means the steps up to the road behind the Nag's.Quote:

Got to think if you went down for any reason, how long would you last.
Rescue team will be out but would still take an amount of time to find you.
I always carry to much, can't stand the potential embarrassment if I needed the team to carry me off and not having enough kit.
I will be carrying full body cover, waterproof cag and windproof leggings, a decent Lowe Alpine hat, merkalon gloves but a pair of waterproof gloves in my pack and a light weight fleece plus map and compass suitable to navigate the course, others just have relevant bearings, which is OK unless you go wrong somewhere, like the year I ended up dropping out of the clag and seeing Dove Stones reservoir complex :eek:. That was when we went round Dean Head and not over Black Hill (as if thats an excuse for ending up at Dovies) :o.
I did finish the race though.
Look on here tomorrow for compulsory kit.
A pair of comfy wellington boots might be handy jodj if the weather down there is anything like it is up here ;)Quote:

I have to say the idea is very tempting but I have my eye on that young Daz.Quote:

I've stached a drink and some gels but they may have froze up by now. Are you really going to follow me, I'd have thought you had an outside chance of winning this;) Matt H and Gavin will also be there abouts so perhaps you should be following them, They were showing me their route last night and it is completly different from any route I've know of.:eek: just wish i had time to check it out, oh well may be next year :(Quote:

Looking at the weather forecast till Sunday it has sunny periods, some rain and temps above freezing - fair to say we're looking at heavy going!! lots of water run off round Crowden etc today:eek:
you make it sound like I walk every where:o I'm fine with having a fast pacer.Quote:
