But, like many, you’ve got me wrong. My earlier posts weren’t based on elitism – I just didn’t want to see a great race made easier just to allow more people to do it. Nor do I think that we should pester race organisers about this. As can be seen from some of the comments here, it is a tough job organising any fell race – even tougher if it’s as popular and as demanding as Borrowdale.
Yes well done, Daz h – and also well done Scoffer (and all his helpers). It was a hell of a job – and you did us proud.
