First sub of the season. Vic Wilkinson OUT, Jack Wood IN. That leaves me with 3 pints spare, which I could with after my own run on Saturday (I might as well have walked the second half - backwards with my eyes closed...)
Well done Weetabix. Your spicy girls did well for you.
Cheers Stagger, let's hope we get paired again next year.
I took young Tom Saville out of my team thinking that a 17.30 BG in heat a couple weekends back might have done him for the rest of the season - turns out he was in 2nd for most of it but only faded to 7th. Bugger!
How many teams got buggered by Carl Bell's wedding on Saturday wiping out most of Keswick then? ;)
I overheard him chatting to some people about how his race had gone. Apparently it wasn't so much him fading as him taking the direct line between checkpoints 5 and 6. It was hard to tell at the time, but there was a good line staying high which avoided about 50 meters of climb.Quote:

Positions after the 9th race of 15, Black Fell
The top scoring team at Black Fell was 'No-eye deer' (anthonykay) with 62pts, followed by 'alexander the great' (inspector gadget) with 60 and 'Bleaklow Bandits' (TheDarkSide) with 57 - one team from each of the 3 leagues.
'Le quatre fabuleux' (dangilbert) gained the most places - up from 6th to joint 3rd in the BS-league; and 'Wear Brown and Prosper' (loudsmallrunner) dropped the most places - down from joint 1st to 5th in the same league. A reflection of how tight it as at the top of that league, with the top 6 changing every week!
And 'Hanging onto Past Glories' (Mrs Weetabix Power) have moved into the overall lead, at the top of the TSD-league. Faith in Tom Saville would have kept ba-ba the lead!

hi bill.late change,robb jebb and jack wood out,carl bell and finlay wild in thanks,alexander the great
Cup team Bill will be Hannah n Max from regular team
Plus Kelli, Sharon, Finlay and as I'm playing Alexander the Great I'll gamble on Alexander Chepelin. May the best team win IG.
Not seen any results for this yet but Fin Wild took the win & the record in the men’s. I think Jill Stephenson (HBT) won the women’s from Kelli Roberts. Not sure about anything else! Great race & games.
Results: http://www.scottishhillracing.co.uk/...&RaceYear=2019
I got the women’s 1-2 the wrong way round. Interesting to see Scottish men take 1-2-3, 5-6. Be good to see what a strong contingent from Scotland could do over a British Champs series.
They do seem to travel less than even the Cumbrians!
Which area/club travels the best?
Or
Is it just the potential/hopeful winner's?
I reckon the Peak clubs travel the best.... Dark Peak and Pennine... possibly because of a more central location relative to Shropshire, Wales, Lakes, Yorkshire races.
Rarely see many lakes vests outside of their local races, unless a Champs race... but if the fells are already on your doorstep, would you be inclined to travel 3 hours to another area?
Also a big shout out to my fellow Midlands/Southern racers, who have to travel miles for all races, often on their own...!
I’m sure ba-ba is being a little facetious here! I’d say that Ambleside, Helm Hill, Keswick, Calder Valley, DP, Pennine & Mercia (women) all put in a good showing at champs races.Quote:

At Scottish (non-champs) races I’ve done, Ochil put out our a good contingent, along with HBT, Carnethy & Westerlands. It’s worth remembering that all these clubs are based in the Central Belt - Lochaber is a big club & Deeside have some fine runners (Robbie Simpson: Commonwealth Marathon bronze medalist, no less!) but both Fort William & Deeside are quite a way up north!
Eryri seem to be the best represented Welsh club, with Mynydd Du putting out a decent contingent too.
From a practical point of view, the English based clubs have the easier travel options, so it makes sense that they’d get the best showing.
On current form, I suspect Finlay Wild would win the British Champs (& probably the English, if he was affiliated to an English club), but he seems to be doing quite a few Skyraces on the continent (hell, I would if I were that good!)
Hi Bill,
Please could I make my second sub, Rachel Pilling replacing Anna Lupton for the last few races?
That should leave me with a pint to spare.
Thanks!

So the cup final will be between 'Keep Them Dogies Rollin' (Weetabix Power) and 'The Dark Peaky Blinders' (The Elk).
It will be held at Grisedale Horseshoe on Sep 7th.
I like to make the final harder, since you've both proved yourself expert at picking winners, so lets pick 6 guests alongside your two normal team runners - for a total of 8 in the cup final team.
Just realised (to my dismay!) that Borrowdale didn’t count this year... I’d been banking on that to get me out of the relegation mire...!!
I've got similar relegation worries Travs. None of my team ran Creagh Dubh, three of them racing in Italy. I will be embarrassed if, having won last year I get relegated this year. (Just like Man City in 1937/38)Quote:
