Hope everyone enjoyed themselves yesterday - I enjoyed marshalling at the trig watching you all suffer. The jelly babies, mars bars, flapjack and drinks seemed to go down well - I'm glad because lugging those up there was harder than doing the race.
Did a bit of forumite spotting myself - took a few pictures which I'll send to Martin to put on the CLEM site.
Cheers for the pix guys. Mine all in my album on my
CP.
Mapper said I could've gone quicker if I spent less time on the forum.
Nah! ;)
She beat me on the sprint in as my legs had given up with the pain in my hip.
Like I said a good run by Emm as she couldnt stop coughing at the start because of the chest infection thing.
To be fair in fell races I dont look at my times in fact when i dropped my checkpoint tags Emm shouted oh you will need them to get round. I wasnt that bothered as i dont normally look at results and never take my times. Stopwatches are not for me. You will see in all my photos that i wear my trusty old seiko.
I only have to convince one person that ive finished and thats me.
Anyway its put things in a new perspective to see how things are further back in the field.
I didnt realise how lucky i was to be able to train without so many things to think about.
Take Emm , 3 children, full time job , training, a dog to look after and she even baked us all a sponge.
Eck it puts me to shame
Well said Daz, it certainly has its merits at the rear end of the flock, a real social occasion but arguably less stressful too (mentally for me), which is why I take a pikernic eh.;)
I think next year I will join the front runners just to see how that feels... err best start training now eh??:D
Well done 2 M.
I was Mrs. Stagger's bodyguard for the day, any messing about and you'd have to deal with me, and of course the fat lad:mad:
Crap bodyguard i am, i left her on the first climb, and reet folk looked after her:cool:
Sorry Trev, i'll get me cards and sign on tomorrow:(
