He hasn't received any emails from you - and believes that this is because you are using his old freeserve address. His email address is as per the last Fellrunner [email protected] .

In which case it would be good if the committee details on the Fellrunner website were update accordingly. I emailed Jon yesterday (about the refusal of the Dentdale organisers to allow substitutions) using the email link on the website which turns out to be the old one! That explains why I didn't get a reply either.

I'll mail Brett about Jon's details - I'm sure it won't take long to update.

Nice touch, top bloke, as are all race officials and organisers:cool:

You're right Alan i've been using his old address thanks for clearing that up, i don't doubt that the cutoffs were in place and i don't seek to criticise those who put them in place.

A grand day out, many thanks. Always wanted to run in the Howgill Fells and really enjoyed their rather massive isolation and all that grass.
I tried my new reverse Wendy Dodds strategy for the first time.
Gave my re-soled Walsh PB Racers a spin too.

A grand day out indeed, thanks to all concerned. First race since march, good to be back. Felt surprisingly good. Nice to see a few forumites, cheers to Witton Park for the shout at the first checkpoint. Clear day meant you could see for miles, but i always fall over when sightseeing!
Brilliant, tough route but is it 14m or 16m?

any news on winners?

Sorry, had a quick look but my memory fails me. I think The Noor was second, about 3 mins behind the winner whose name escapes me. A really good turn-out by Rossendale MV50s, where my interest lies.

ta brotheron lad! obviously someone very memorable then! I'm sure the results will be out in no time anyway! hope you enjoyed the day.

by the way what's the reverse wendy dodds strategy - and did it work?!

Yep, fantastic race and great weather.

Enjoyed seeing that camouflage Dakota flying by (or did I hallucinate that!?)

If it did exist, I think its one run by these guys (scroll down):
