    Photo's from 3 Peaks

    Has anyone got any photo's from the start of this years 3 Peaks Race, either on the field or runnning through the village. I've seen some good ones out on the fells but none from the start of the race. Thanks.

    These have been sent to our club, they appear to have most people, but none of the start. I hope this helps.

    Yeah, thanks for that link, some great individual photo's, cheers. Was hoping someone may have taken some of the mass start, but nevermind. This was my first attempt at 3 Peaks so wanted as many reminders of it as I coiuld get.

    Can't provide this year's - but here's one when the start was at the Hill Inn, I think it's 1966 cos there's Bill Wade on it and a somewhat speedier Epocian
    (Anyone remember the cosy double plank toilet of the pub?)
    Incidentally Dave Spencer descended Whernside in 16m 41 sec in this race
    but still nearly 4 minutes slower than Colin Robinson's incredible 12min 44secs
    in 1969 with Jeff Norman only 13 secs behind having been at the top together!

    Fozzy, you could try e-mailing Pete Hartley,the guy who takes lots of pics. for FRA magazine. He hasn't got a web site that I'm aware of but if you give him your race number,club colours etc he will see if he has taken one of you.
    I've had some great ones off him over the years.
