This time last year it was me watching at Caw with a bad ankle. You'll be back up to full speed soon. Can't join you all at Coniston tomorrow unfortunately but have a great run everyone.

Re the camp site. What is the club that might be open? Rugby?
Looking forward to tommorrow - should be a good test for the tired 3 peaks legs - but I've managed 2 training runs this week with no problems. Coniston is more like my sort of distance and I just love the descent
When i did this my tactic off the Old Man was to follow a knowledgeable and experienced looking Ambleside vest. Unfortunately the bugger twisted his ankle about 5 mins down the speedy route down the front and left me a couple of other guys high and dry. That ended up costing me time rather than gaining it. :mad:
If you aren't certain I'd go for the toursit path with obvious short cuts route - less can go wrong that way.
Brilliant race though - to go well you need a combination of climbing ability, pure running ability on the ridge and the ability to drop like a falling stone so it should produce a worthy winner. Enjoy!!
Is everyone still out there? :) Any reports?
Ian Holmes won.
Cracking race, shame about the blisters. Just need some advice on making them better that descent blistered me up for fun,:eek:
Me too! Blisters....
Cracking race! Next year for sure!!
Jackie Lee won ladies race, Angela Mudge second, Hazel Jones third. Fantastic day. Cloud cleared about ten minutes too late for me.
