Some photos from tonight here

Hey Zeph - it's a good job that stile was really dry and not muddy because someone could have gone seriously a over t if it had been muddy and greasy and they were trying to jump over it with some fancy vaulting technique...;)
Vaulting technique? That wasn't vaulting technique, I was showing you how to recover from a really bad attempt at going over a stile. Just for future reference y'understand.
Twas an excellent roll'an'recovery if I do say so myself.
Twas.
like yer new sig file. Think I might do that for kinder downfall.

Not a everybody was having as much fun as the runners!
the marshalls did a brilliant job and I think all they had a great time, this lovely one was very cheery and encouraging as I passed.
a belting race
Brit Nick were you there? didn't see you
That really is a smashing mid week race.
Really enjoyed it.
Thanks to all who helped to make it happen.
How hard is running/walking up hills?
Hopefully my hamstrings will have recovered by the downfall.
Thanks to all marshalls for the shouts and smiles on a rainy night
Results up on the Glossopdale website - go to the Herod Farm race page.
It's good to hear that a splendid time was had by all, despite the weather.
I have one item of lost property - a pair of red gloves that were left near the start.
Werdna
Andy thanks for all your efforts and thanks to all the Glossopdale Harriers and marshalls.
Race report is now written and up.

apologies for the lack of pictures, but my normal photographer type lackey (cyclops) had the temerity to be *running* in the race rather than stand around in the rain recording the occasion. So if anyone has any lovely pics, drop us a line so's I can nick em and put them on the blog. You will of course get pic credits and my eternal gratitude.
I have finally managed to dry out the camera and get around to uploading some photos of the race which can be found here https://picasaweb.google.com/ShaunP050
Zephyr - feel free to use any for your blog, although I am not sure about your expression on that tricky stretch through the heather.
Shaun
Thanks Shaun, copied and assimilated. You certainly picked quite a place to get some good gurning!
I've replaced the results word document with a pdf file, so should be fine now. Don't understand the unzipping thing, as I didn't set the file to be zipped.
I've copied a couple of photos as well Shaun, hope that's OK....thank you! http://runningdelights.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/herod-farm-fell-race.html
Glossopdale website, bottom of page, Herod Farm Hill race, results 2012
That's Glossopdale Craic - the race isn't over until you locate the results. It's too easy if it's on the home web-page. :)
Wedna, NME, et al, thanks for getting the results out so swiftly - and a special thanks to Wormstone and the various 'results runners' for swift compilation on the night.
Oh yes, and the marshalls and the parking 'tessellation crew' at the garage. :w00t:
And to all you punters for turning up to make it at 100+ midweek event yet again.
I notice some of you couldn't resist getting glory in today's Downfall too - what ARE your legs made of?
It must definitely be me being thick on this one!!!!
Gone to home page, says results available (but no link), Cicked through to Herod Farm Race page. All previous years results there.......but can not see 2012 at top/bottom .....or anywhere. If anyone can do me an idiots guide to locating link, I would be very grateful.
Have you tried clicking the refresh button at the top (or F5) when you're on the page? Your computer might be showing what it already has stored instead of downloading the latest page.
Anyone doing this tomorrow night?
Marshalling :thumbup:
Thinking about it.
I hope to.
yes. will be on registration for a while too so say hello if you're racing. forecast looks promising
All being well, looking forward to a run in sunny? Glossop.
I love this race! first midweeker of the local season
Fun race, thanks to all involved for organising and staffing, loved that first downhill, nearly came a cropper off a ledge overhanging some heather.
Tough one tonight, especially after the Calderdale on Saturday. Don't know how the time was, but seemed hard work...
Thanks to all the folk who made it happen...look forward to the results:D
Thanks to all concerned, enjoyed the race, even the cheeky second climb.
