Hope lots of us are on for this one.

I made the classic beginners error with this one last year - after two (count them) Trunces I believed I was some kind of fell running expert and thought that a poxy eight miles would be no problem. I soon came down to earth with a bump.

A year older and wiser, I've used this course many times as a practice route and I've grown to quite like it Can't wait for the race proper.

I haven't been up Black Hill for a few weeks though - anyone know what its like at the moment? I'm hoping for pukka bogs on the day...
