I would say you'd be better off in fell shoes. Theres a few boggy sections and the descent to the concrete bridge could be tricky. Have fun!

I'll be there. Is there a route map anywhere? Does it go up to the cross then back down?

Browse the thread back to post #43.

I'm just getting ready - don't forget folks 10:30 start

Great race today, well organised, and cheery Marshalls despite the horrible conditions so a big thanks to everyone who organised it...
First time on this race, so saved a bit for the last climb...sting in the tail that!!! and very fast run in down that farm track. Will come back for 2013.
:-D

great race, actually enjoyed it, altho really could do with loosing the run round the cricket pitch after..my legs were zapped..thanks to everyone who organized the race and marshalled..not forgetting mountain rescue, thought at one point I might of needed them, went over on my ankle, just as they sat there in front of me on the last down hill.

Loved every bit of the race today

The long pull all the way along the track was grim but after that I thought it was a great course. Fantastic to see a v80 taking part. When I grow up I want to do that!

Thank you to Cath H & gang for a well organised race. Had the right mix of tussock, boggy bits, fast flat or downhill stretches & the last climb which I was pre-warned about. Think I had a decent ish run, once I got going, approaching the Cowpe Low trig.

Results typed and will be on Rossendale Harriers website, John Schofield Race Results and possibly here if I could work out how to attach them. Thanks to all who turned out yesterday - runners and marshals alike. The weather was poor - not a bit as you'd expect in June - resulting in the inevitable cancellation of the cricket match which was due to follow and the reason for bringing the start time forward by half an hour . . . .
