The lostock lad turned up, not sure which one you saw as one went thirlmere, one went to fairfield and one went to patterdale ha ha 2 out the 5 of us finished :-)
Frightening.... but not as frightening as finding yourself in Thirlmere!Quote:

Hopey - I was with a Lostock runner called Mike on the descent from Dollywagon to Grisedale Tarn. Visibility was such that we didn't see the tarn until we were almost in it! Mike and I began the ascent to Deepdale Hause together but then he dropped behind. I wondered about waiting for him but couldn't see how far behind he'd got on account of the clag and it wasn't the sort of weather to hang around in. I decided that, as it was a race, he should be able to look after himself, so I carried on. After all, I wasn't that confident in my own navigation so even if I'd waited for him, I might have just led him astray!
All the same, I didn't see him at the finish. Do you know how he got on? Was he one of those who ended up at Patterdale or Fairfield? (if so: "Sorry Mike!")

Hi leafyes Mike ended up in Patterdale. You cant hang around for people in those conditions.I bet he wont make that mistake again ;-)
