Good Weather today for this race - was made up to knock 13 mins off last years time - same again next year and I might even win a prize! ;-)...1.22.59
thanks to the marshalls/organisers again.
Da Iawn Dyl.
Was a awsome route and the first climb was a beast!! and the last one up Cynghorion, but the last descent was INSANE, loved it. Happy with 2nd and 1:09:12 at my first attempt. Will know what to expect next year. Thanks for the brilliant prize, £40 Pete Bland Sports voucher and a expensive looking Salomon vest. Awsome!!
Great race and a fantastic day for it, the views were awesome. I couldn't help stop a couple of times to take photos(sad git). My time was no where near as impressive as some but I don't think I'll ever be competing for top spot.
Thanks to organisers, marshals and mountain rescue for keeping an eye on us.
Now to the pub I think
About perfect conditions today. 4.5 minutes slower than my last run there...Quote:

who won? are the results out yet?
:)1:21 for me today, almost exactly the same time as last year! Can't understand it, thought I was in better condition and last years race was so blustery! (wind must have been behind me up the first climb last year!)
Great day though, enjoyed it and its the last run for me before a family holiday to Egypt:cool:
