By my reckoning thats a stile every 400m or so, be bit like interval training.Quote:

Really so many stiles, I think I'll give it a miss.
Im looking forward to this, first fell race of the year. Did it as my first ever last year, so hopefully my time will have improved!
Looks like there ll be alot of people having a run, more than last year i rekon. Should be fun on the narrow bits, through the heather and at the stiles :D
well at least you won't have a penguin waddling past ya! :rolleyes:Quote:

Anybody free to show me the way or anyone know what time the course will be flagged by?
Are you offering to help with the flagging?
That's an idea. Flagging beforehand.Quote:

I will be up there about 6pm as i have to see where the u14s go since i am the hare and i cant remember it being flagged since i did it 2 years ago but it could be and if it is flagged it will be early afternoon when it is flaggedQuote:

Hell, those under 14's can run - make sure you get a good start :D
I will be having a good head start
See you there!
Hi folks,
What time do the junior races start?
In the handbook it says 18:30, but on the Rossy website it says 18:50, after the seniors set off.
Bill, are you running tonight? a couple of us are coming over see will maybe see you there
Adam is going to run in the under 8's; and Anne in the considerably-over-8's. :DQuote:

It will be interesting to see how he fares in a shorter race after his storming run in the Wuthering Hike... though I still think he should run in the Adult's Race.Quote:

Only about 5 muddy places, but I found them!;)Quote:

Pleased to meet so many forumites and especially Brett who I hadn't met before.
Thanks to the organisers for a great race and Steve Bateson for taking the pictures.
They should be on his site fairly soon.
Swoop, thanks for the intro to Brett, father and mother to the forum.
Any ideas where the results will appear?
Hey, come on, you can't pin that on me! All I did was get the Geek to set the forum up!
Anything that's happened since is all down to you :D

The photos are listed on Steve Bateson's site but the link doesn't appear to be clickable. Or is it just me?
Children had a great evening. Their friend Pete even ended up doing the senior race instead of the junior one. Everyone was only worried for about half an hour. :eek: Thanks to everyone who went out looking for him.
Big thanks to Pengy for helping out with Jolivers as usual. :)
Hi Brett - Anne apologises for not being able to hold a conversation with you, but she was struggling for breath at the time. :D
As she disappeared into the distance!!
