I've just had a look at the woodnetops website, apparently I did it in 1996 in 39:08, I can't see that ever happening again:(

I never bother checking whether there's full kit check or not, i just put it all in then find out when i get there. This way you never get caught out. If i were you i'd take it all, it can be a bit wet and windy up there. Just hope that you don't need any of it.
Good enough for me, like i said though, me new waterproof pants ain't here yet so i'll have to take me old ones in which i look like a human bin bag, hope i don't need em, Cheers supersaint have a good 'un.:DQuote:

Many thanks to the Woodentops and all their helpers for such a great race as usual.
Apols for parking my mountain bike near to the finish line and thanks to someone for moving it.........won't happen again.......oooooooppps.
Ambition fulfilled - first ever fell race that I've biked to and from although think it really affected my performance in the race. Also nearly threw at the end.....hmmmmmm, nice.
Good to see many friends, thanks again.

Enjoyed the race today a bit tricky underfoot in places with the frozen ground and the bogs that I almost sank in a few times. Noticed a few along the way take a tumble. Some good photos available on the following link:

Only a bit tricky underfoot! My shins are ripped to shreds from ice cuts and I lost 15 places whilst stuck in a bog. Loved it.Quote:
