Oh and i agree - the high peak is an amazing event and experience for everyone involved, why tarnish that with arguments about an unfortunate accident?!!?
There are some miserable gets out there!
Great time TP: saw your lot in the results but forgot to look out for you on the night. Probably a good job you didn't need me: that pace would've killed me this year I think! :o;)Quote:

Maybe catch up with you at another challenge type event - bob graham for me in May so winding up for that from now
Four? That's even more than Grouse.
What had he got in his race sack? Prunes?!;)Quote:

Quality! I came prepared: some wet wipes (moisturising, no less) in a zip lock bag! ;)Quote:

You will have to get Mrs Second to Last to organise your backpacks next year, you have probably never noticed on the club runs but she always has at least 2 packets of tissues packed in her bum bag. I think she considers them mandatory FRA kit - but I wouldn't want to open a can of worms on that one. Although I imagine worms is possible outcome of moss and/or bracken.Quote:

I imagine a can of worms would be pretty ineffective compared with moss.Quote:

I trying to shift a bad cold hence the mauvais humour
well the last few days of posts have been interesting reading and i will opt to stay clear of that debate.
thanks to the organisers for a great race, it was my first HPM and i thoroughly enjoyed it. The marshalls at the checkpoints were a welcome site and always had words of encouragement.
Thanks to IDP for helping finding us a stand in runner, who turned out to be a machine, he only seemed to know one pace never slower and never faster but very constant.
hopefully we will be back next year, if the HPM will have us as im sure we could go a lot faster..
we finished 19th in 12hrs 14minutes
Anyone else still hungry and tired after this? :eek: I've not stopped eating since. Or yawning.
Put on half a stone as usual.
Unlike Marg who lost half a stone with his unscheduled stops en route...:D
Surely that should be Brat' Packs;)...Quote:

But, daft to the core..
I'm sure we will...
Be back..:eek:..
And, of course a very very very big thank-you indeed to Sheff' Uni HPC & their Crazy Daft Mad Mates & truly ace Long Term Supporters... who make the DW/HPM one of the best Night & Days' Out...with wilderness to die for.....when you get a moment (next year!) to look around:D.
Real Kracker this year, plenty of superb vistas (clear & murky!), all deeply etched inside for a long time to come, we are of course very lucky...I know we know...
You'll have to get him to carry some of your kit to lighten your load. It makes sense to me:)Quote:

I might be up for that Ian, but won't know until pretty near the time....
I assume you are with last year's winning mixed team Ian. Perhaps Helene D might be interested unless she is in another team.Quote:
