Someone may correct me, but off the top of my head:

Cricket Inn
Along road until it runs out about 293 800
Contour path until about 293 788
Straight up past false summit cairn 288 789 then totley moor trig
North to Moss Road then west to 280 796 (this bit I'm not 100% about, I think the route follows the OS marked right of way to 295 802)
Best bit: up the "sting in the tail" road to the stile at 291 798).
Fast blast back to Cricket, via fields rather than the road we used outward.

Cheers Rich

Eh up folks. I'll be there tomorrow, looking forward to it.

Don't have the map in front of me but from memory Rich's description sounds pretty accurate, I certainly remember the sting in the tail! The descent to the finish is brilliant, initially a bit of a steep / technical bit through the heather before letting rip through the fields as Rich says. Think it then does join the road briefly to take us back down to the cricket pitch.

It's a really good short race, nice fast ground up there at the moment, just save a bit for the end

Not me - bit sore of leg to race 2 days in a row, so I'm heading up onto kinder in a bit instead.

I had a great time watching the lads and lasses tonite and some good company afterwards chewing the cud with simgreen78. Well done simon another good run.

Results slightly later than envisaged owing to people making me buy beer and drink it.

Here you go.

Brilliant race this. Great organisation from Totley, thank you to all organisers and marshalls for last night. A hard but very enjoyable slog!

Nice to finally meet Herakles, cheers for the post-race pint and chat Matt.

What a great night for a fell race, well done everyone that took part, you all looked like you enjoyed it - well that was my view marshaling at the trig, I hardly broke sweat watching you struggle after the climb.
