Thanks for that bob.
The main thing was that we maintained bragging and boasting rights in the Borough.
We beat Middleton by 34 seconds so as far as i'm concerned the team are conquering, corageous, brave, valiant, intrepid and heroic champions to a man.
Radcliffe must be put to the sword next year though. :D
Hey mudlugger im glad you didn,t keep my buff .I just like to thank you on this forum for posting it back to me i got it saturday just in time for the relay .Didnt really need it though as did leg one and weather was not bad at all.Its a shame no one has handed in your balaclava its maddening when you lose kit isnt it .Im not having much luck myself as when getting out of car at the rugby club i seem to of lost my trek mates deerstalker hat.:mad: Im thinking of getting some name tags made like when i was at primary school.:D
As someone relatively new to the world of Fell Racing - can someone tell me if the 1st claim rules don't apply here?
There does seem to be a few notable "loan deals" in the results!
Well, I was due to run for Horwich A but was "loaned" out to K & C C
I believe that Horwich were gutted :D
hey glad you got it ok, you never know with snailmail eh?
Ah, kit can be replaced at the end of the day, I guess I should be glad I got round without any mishaps.
A deerstalker eh... theres gotta be a joke in that one somewhere??
Very busy at the rugby club, it will be trampled into the ground by now.
We had a member who joined us for the fells only. He doesn't know it yet, but for Christmas I am getting him the full club kit!!!! Red is his colour, even though he tried to soak the vest in mud before he even got it on. I will give it six months before he crosses the line totally.
Several clubs, like the winning team, seemed to have a few incomers on the team. Leg 1- Belgrave and Sale comes to mind but I do believe Rick joined Horwich fully and Paul runs for them second claim. Not many fells down at Belgrave!!! Greeny on leg 4 runs for Sale first claim, but I wouldn't say they did anything wrong. Lets face it, can't ever see Sale Harriers getting a good 12 out for the relay.
Well done to Horwich on winning this event. Cracking team effort and they seem to have good support out and about. Is Norman Matthews going to display his photos anywhere? (Is Norman a member of this forum?)
