Wouldn't mind having a first go at the Stoop, but can't justify 2 races up there so close together to wife (I'm on the entry list for 'ALS')

Great fun as usual, with 400 Santa hats heading for the hills.
Dave's pre-race Health and Safety talk was also a highlight...;)

Great photos thanks Mick. Great race as usual. Dave's pre-run briefings are one of the reasons I always enter. Priceless!

On leaving the house this morning my wife said, " I can't believe you're racing today, you can hardly walk you're a bloody idiot". This is not the usual 'goodbye' see you later, but this morning she had a point.
Yesterday I did the 39 mile Tour de Helvellyn race in the Lake District. This morning I felt trashed and racing wasn't really an option. But I can't resist a Woodhead race, it's not just the race it's the crack. Where else do you get free chocolate and the chance to see hundreds of fellrunners trudging across the moors in Santa hats. Every energy sapping bog had yesterday's 39 miles chewing me up and spitting me out, not forgetting my wife's words ringing in my ears....she really does know best.
Result wise, less said the better....but I enjoyed it and that's what counts.
Many thanks to Woodheads and helpers.

Well done on a pretty impressive weekend double-header Darren. I also would like to echo your thanks to the Woodheads and helpers for a great race

Be nice to see such an upstanding member of the FRA forum community at a race.

Do your best Andy and bring your lovely wife too for a dirty outing.

If you can call a pathetic 13 minute mile pace running then yes. See you there

Another enjoyable production by Mr & Mrs W.
Had a gentle potter at the back with the sweepers and had some good company.
After the heart opp I'm on the come back now:-)
Thankyou to all who helped and ran.
