Hoh yes! :)
The fence wasnt looking so fresh in later pics though. Still i suspect that there were plenty of runners heading back up there after the race to fix it!!Quote:

Did anyone pick up the (blue Noonstone) buff that I dropped early in the race?
(would appreciate getting this back before Spring!)
