Turnslack Fell race

[harrymoon]

yep, proper fell race indeed - mud, bog & steep climbs/descents
superbly organised, and loved the church venue, very unusual - not sure why this isn't more common...
harrymoon - did they sort out the results eventually?

Hi Daz

Great to see you Saturday.

I think so, the prizegiving was at 5, lots of fun prizes (toilet rolls, rice, tins of beans etc), didn't manage to get a decent photo of the results as could have added as an image on here, no one was mentioning they were 'faster' or 'slower' by then so think all was well by the end.

80 runners set out on this tough course and 79 came back ok. ( 1 bad ankle)
Winner was 78.15 although Fleeter and his mate went for a walk round the moor tops.
Tough little race and the blisters prove it.

Great race Kev - it certainly found me out. Back next year hoping for light rain and a breeze.

Turnslack today guys, it's quite dry underfoot on most of the course, although there is a bit of vegetation here and there.

Hope,to see some of you there.

Well...that was rougher than I expected.

Nearly every climb a scramble along with some rough terrain under foot. Classic!
