It's a fair trek to Reeth, I am supposed to be doing Witton Park trail race but am having thoughts about Reeth now, perhaps it's the cider......Quote:

U/17s is at one or u/9s. If its under 9s it will be more like a 2 o clock start wont it.
What is the course like at Hebden
it will be u9s at 1 its a descent course 1.5m 500ft run out the show field the down a gravel track for 300m which is all down hill then across the river starting a steady climb then abit of a gradual climb upto a real steep final climb through the ferns then its a fast runnable bit across the top over a big wall then a real steep descent to another wall at the bottom over a foot bridge then a climb back up the gravel track to the field a killer of a finish abit like the finish of shulingsloe http://www.bofra.co.uk/HebdenPhotos.php last years pics :)Quote:

Senior race is usually after 4pm so U17's will be just before.

Enjoyed my first go at this race in very slippery conditions. Fortunately there was a queue at the chimney by the time I got there which made for a slower and safer descent.
someone got my fall on video carnt wait to see it it maybe better than jonnys i think :DQuote:

Now you mention it, I don't have a clue what all the BOFRA records are either. Some, like Sedbergh, will be pretty recent as it is a new course, but some ofthe others have been the same for a long time.Quote:
