That happened as well, and i got bitch slapped:eek: Some girls are just so PMT:rolleyes:
Any ponies doing Wernside on saturday:confused: Not sure my injured fetlocks will get me round but the 'ol cart horse may make the trip up.
superb day at Lantern Pike on Saturday :)
good to say hello to merrylegs and Fleeter (albeit briefly) before the start
Fleeter just didn't look right not being in a Ponies vest though :confused:
results not out yet, but think I was a few seconds quicker than last year - was hoping for even better, but the heat wasn't helping (not to mention my lack of recent training :o )
couple of pints in the beer tent soon revived me though :D
Well done Daz.... report on the website to follow???
Yeah, was a cracking day out Daz. Fleeter tried to hide his CVFR vest by rolling in the mud (twice) thus demonstrating he's still a pony at heart.Quote:

hi emmi
I quite fancy Whernside one year, but not this
swapping to concentrating on flat road :eek: stuff for a few weeks (going to have a bash at my 5k, 10M and HalfMara PB's)
might sneak in a trot round Windgather (Oct.12th) and/or Passing Clouds (Oct.26th) just to keep my "fell legs" in though ;)
hope your fetlocks are OK :)
Been looking at those too Daz.Quote:

Got soaked going through the ford at the start, well nobody told me there was a bridge so I just followed the blokes in front:o It must have been knee deep for some people.
But not for you with your dizzying height:pQuote:

Any other ponies fancy a crack at it?
Mrs C and I fancied Madiera, those levadas look interesting:eek: only problem with 2009 is it's her 20th again and we sort of promised ourselves New Zealand and Borneo, close call, what do you reckon?? ;)Quote:
