Surely the double is on?

Or am I the only one who does stupid things along those lines (like stopping off on the way home to do an urban O race in Stockport the day after doing the Snowdonia Marathon..)

Got to be the double surely?

Will feel it slogging around kentmere for the first time after that Snowdon descent.

Nah, you're not the only stupid one, Richard. "Race within a race" Doubles are the way forward. Good luck to anyone attempting the Snowdon / Kentmere double.

Glad to hear it, since Coniston is part of a Treble weekend for me - Coniston Sat, Northern O champs on Gummer's How on Sun, Kendal Urban O on Bank Hol Mon.

Going to be fun.

Race within a race a bit crazy even for me though!

Think myself and some of the Sheff Uni boys are joining you for the Northern Champs on the Sunday its going to hurt a lot I'm sure!

Any U20s looking for an entry please email the Race Organiser (stating U20 entry).

Cheque been cashed today so presumably I'm in. Nice one.

can anyone get the http://conistonfellrace.org.uk/ website working?
just wondering if there was any useful info on there worth knowing before the race this w/end?

Hi lynne, it's working for me. It basically says bring full mandatory Fra kit and arrive in plenty of time due to large numbers of runners. Parking available in the village at the schools, weather permitted (waterlogged fields). Definitely no parking down the copper mine road. Have a good one... Oh one more thing, it says 12.15 start, i thought it was a 12.30 start?

I think the web site is down I can't get into it, tried to go via CFR web site which has some basic info, but again the link to the main web site did not work.

It was working the other day and had an entry list up.
