I think that's a great idea.

Did you have a brief chat with two lads at the top of the 5th climb on Sunday. If so it was me n a mate.

Saw about 8 runners in total Sunday morning (8:30-10) - only did waves and 'owdo's though - did you have a dog as well and your mate was still finishing the climb??

No didn't have a dog. I was out between 8 and 10:30 and also saw lots of people. All making the most of the extra hour I expect.

Race entry in the post yesterday. Don't feel fit for it but it'll be good training.

A temporary lapse of reason Ady, don't worry about it :D

I have my entry filled in, cheque written and in an envelope with a stamp on it. I just need to get past those bad experiences in the past on the last climb up the big-end and post it.

Wow! well done Mapper :cool:

I did my first FTOP in the mid 90s (94 or 95 I think?). It was the first AL I had ever done.
Such was it's effect on me I didn't attempt another AL for years :eek:

Now stop being such a wuss Alf and get that entry posted!
