Young BaBa of this here forum was first u25:thumbup:
Tank empty for me. 4.03. Had nothing at the end ! 9 mins slower than last years 3.54. No excuses ! Great run from Rob Furness, looking very strong coming off Ingleborough, finishing in 3.56. Well done mate.
Results anyone?
Symonds
Bell
Carlos the Jackal
Jebby
Andrew Fallas
Really enjoyed supporting today, it was pretty cold and windy, Forumites looking good at Ribblehead (Mountain Goatess, Hes, Manhar, Jez Hellewell, Rob Furness), hope you didn't mind the cowbells, my three Chapel Allerton fellow runners did really well too. Love this event, just wish I was quick enough to make the cut-offs. Any views on the new path?
The same Symonds who ran the marathon the other weekend?
Come on Andi.Quote:

First time here too, 3:56, very happy as was aiming for 4 hours. Funny that you see over 50% of the people fending off the cramp, even those who are reasonably fast!
Never again.
Until next year.
didn't cover myself in glory today. my first DNF!
knee seized up on the Whernside descent. up to then my plan was pretty much on track. a slow painful walk to the Hill Inn resulted in a timed out retirement - not that I was carrying on!
on the plus side I really enjoyed the whole atmosphere of the event. the support was amazing and the organisation very slick. still need to cogitate on whether I like the route...
big respect to the marshal at the top of Whernside. I think I could hear him at Ribblehead and he certainly dragged me up the last section.
consoling myself with some beer. see here
@BehindYou = I loved the cowbells!
Cheers to the organisers and all the many many marshals! And congrats to Joe for smashing out that time so soon after Rotterdam!
Well pleased with 3:25:40 despite minimal long running since Jan, and nice to win the U25s category, although the look on the face on the 2nd place lad as I passed him on the final climb to the summit of Inglebugger as he asked me if I was U25... sorry mate!:o
Slowest I've ever moved downhill coming over Sulber mind, that was painful!
well done all who ran!:thumbup:
LOVED the cowbells, many thanks for the support !

Enjoyed the day, it is a beast of a race!!
Thanks for the positive comments people. Had a decent run and felt pretty good except for the last mile and half where the wheels fell off big style. 3:56 for me too so happy with that.
Had a top day out as sweeper runner for the first section to Ribblehead. Felt like the grim reaper of fell running tracking the last runner! Well done to all who got round, definately going to give it a go next year!
Disappointing race for me. 5 hours when I was hoping for sub 4:30. Nothing in the legs all day. That'll teach me to go Bob Graham recceing 3 days before a big race.
Still a great day out. Thanks to all marshalls and supporters.
I will throw my 4.02 in there as well. Hope for sub 4 but nothing left to give.
Good to meet jez!
Amazing race and so many marshals selflessly giving up there time.. Thank you
Till next year
Pleased with today, I survived, my leg held up all the way round and managed 3:51 and a big sprint finish.
I did try that but it failed to load in Google chrome.Quote:

Good to meet you MM. Bad luck on your DNF.

Wow, the SportSunday ones are £4.99 !! Have they gone up ? I think I will wait for the, ever reliable & cheaper, Mr Woodhead photos !! (on the Woodentops website).

I'm currently debating whether a gentle recovery run this morning would be a good idea.
Well done, a great effort for your first 3 P's.

I'd first like to mention the marshalls. It was my 5th Peaks yesterday, but all around the course the marshalls really got involved, engaged with us athletes and it's probably the best marshalling I've ever witnessed at any race - they really helped make my day more enjoyable and at the BBH post Peaks curry night last night everyone else agreed.
Good to have a brief chat with BBH and Peaks legend Harry Walker who was marshalling on Whernside, just before the steep part of the descent. Top bloke.
I did notice that the spectator numbers were down - I normally arrive at Ribblehead to masses of people - the grassy approach to the dibbers is usually lined two or three deep and then the Hill Inn also lined with people outside the pub. Just seemed sparse yesterday.
I thoroughly enjoyed the race - my time was a little disappointing at 5:11 but better than last year when the wheels really did come off. I just found myself fighting to stave off cramp from the top of Whernside yesterday, so despite feeling strong, I just couldn't push.
Whernside yet again did for me I suppose.
Never seen as many suffering with cramp in the race - they were all over yesterday.
I agree. Not one jelly baby offer from spectators this year. The weather was a real contrast. Snow on PYG. I then burnt my forehead later on in the sun.
