Good to see some of you forumites out there today.
Harry H ran a blinder!
Al F had a good one too and Em, Hes, Mudlugger and Baggins were looking strong as they came through Dale Head.
What a cracking day - a joy to be out on the fells
Likewise Deejay.Quote:

I bet it was great being on Dale Head all day. I know it isn't always that nice being a marshall. Thanks for doing a great job.
Well done all you Anni Waltzers:)
Cheers Merry. I know you wanted to be there too. Hopefully we'll see you next year.Quote:

I wasn't feeling too good but still beat last year's time so pleased with that.
The first section along the valley up to the foot of Robinson nearly finished me.
A superb event and very sociable too.:)
what a race and what a day ! first and am guessing not the last case of sunburn this year,My poor pale skin :eek:
I would just like to day a big thank you to everyone involved in the organisation of this race, I can see why it is so popular.
I was pleased to arrive early to enjoy the atmosphere at the village, it was great to see so many forumites and i hope to post some pics at some stage (including a very fetching one of emmilou's hair which I regard as a work of art- her hair- not the photo!)...the run itself I found quite gruesesome in parts (especially robinson!) and I was definately suffering from dehydration...but the views were spectacular.awseome in fact......i felt like i was doing well (for me) and reached the final checkpoint in a reasonable time (again for me)...unfortunately I somehow took a wrong turn after high spy (i think) which led to me and one other getting lost so it took us ages to get back but even so i was just pleased to be part of the whole experience and would love to it again (with a bit more prepration..ie a recce perhaps!)
A special thanks to Harry Howgill and Hes who both ran excellent races and waited for a lost freckle to return when they could have so easily gone home earlier for a nice soak in the bath!...x
