Did my long weekend run on Sunday, Trunce race Monday night and a short 30mins trot yesterday. Nowt planned and enforced rest until Saturday with my feet up as much as poss.

It's obviously a different sort of race to a 3Ps event but I don't think resting up is a bad idea even though it's only a **short**(:eek:) 10miler.

Good luck to all at snowdon on saturday. I have a feeling the internet is going to be cutoff later today

Saturday
After a dry and bright start it will cloud over, with rain moving in from the west at some point during the day. Winds, mainly light in the morning, becoming gentle south to southwesterly in the afternoon.

I'm doing stipperstones fell race (AS) in shropshire tonight as a warm up for the big event on Saturday .

Really looking forward to the weekend .

Pinno , if you can take your camara that would be great . I don't think Al Tye is doing Snowdon this year . I'll ask him tonight .

See you all there

Will try a run tonight to see how things are then decide in the morning wether to run on Saturday or not.

Al Tye is attending another race Saturday I think? so if I don't run I will certainly be taking the camera.

Pinno ,

Hope you can run mate .

I may take my phone/GPS/camera thingy and see if I have time to take some shots on the way up/down . It would give me an excuse to have a rest ;)
Mrs N will be at start to take some shots .

Pete

As you say pete ... Same S**t different hill .

Have a good run .

At least Al won't be able to get a photo of me struggling up yet another hill .

Weather looks good. No-one should get lost anyway!!!

Not racing, but heading up to watch. I'll be the one with the grumpy four-year old wanting to go home and saying "This is boring, can we go home now?".

Kids eh? What do they know??
