Haworth Hobble

[haworth hobbler]

felt bloody crap most of the way round but stuck it out to the end. BUT the upside is that i met some great lads out there. pity the majority of road bashers don't talk, they should try an ultra for a great 'crack' between fellow sufferers!

Are you worth talking to?

[haworth hobbler]

haven't got a clue, ask lads that i was with....either i was worth talking to or they were too knackered to run away!

Sounds like they were trying but you weren't

Met Mezza Foster and BritNick briefly (he was admiring my fetching outfit and i think tried to pull me - too grey for me Nick)

Don't worry Anti, you're safe - too hirsute for me. Nice to meet you though all the same.

What's all this about alcohol at Mankinholes? I wish I'd known. I could have been half an hour faster.

Thanks for the biscuits Ady. I did avail myself of a cheeky little Blue Riband.

Many thanks once again to Brett and helpers for another great event. The turnout seemed massive this year.

I've uploaded my pictures. Anti and Fly make appearances. Anyone else?

Fantastic Event! :thumbup:
Route, organisation, even weather pretty much spot on
pottered round with clairster in 8:24
fueled mainly, in my case, by 3 jam doughnuts and a shedload of shortbread biscuit

great pics from Ady and Nick (in whose I can spot myself, Marvin, John4of5 & merrlylegs)

I'm on Big Turnout 1 just behind Antisally's clubmate, and on the Widdop carpet and the one after, great pics as always Nick, i did leave some whiskey for you as i knew your were just behind me:wink:

Not to sure about those hot cross buns though :thunbdown:

Never try anything new in a race eh?

Went shopping yesterday and got some hot cross buns, will bring a few with me for Heptonstall!

Am thinking of doing a bit of baking if I'm out and about on a long one. Millionaire shortbread anyone?

My first Hobble and I really enjoyed it. Loved the route - especially the first part over the moors and around the reservoirs listening to the skylarks, grouse, curlews and lapwings serenading us. I took it quite slowly as my legs were still pretty tired from the marathon I did 2 weeks ago but was pleased to finish in 8h 27min. Made the mistake of having a hotdog AND a jam doughnut at the lunchtime checkpoint and had to walk for about 2 miles while they went down!

Many thanks to everyone involved – had a cracking day out :thumbup:
