Old County Tops

[Mountain Hare]

A very thorough and interesting report from a totally different perspective to most of the rest of us in the race.

Congratulations on a fine defence of your title - well deserved - hopefully you'll be there again doing battle next year with an even stronger field for the 20th running of this classic event.

For my part, I fully intend to be there again and might even have a go at 'racing' rather than just 'surviving'....

There is a race report on the runfurther.com website (although the Old County Tops isn't part of the Montrail series).

Great report! You made it sound like fun

I'll have a go next year if I can find someone daft enough.

So you didn't skinny dip in Angle Tarn then?.....

[Mr1470]

Went in up to my waist up The Bog.....but kept my clothes on.

Does that count?

The organiser has asked me to confirm to all interested that the race is run in pairs, as in all previous years. There has been slight confusion due to the layout of the wording in the calendar.

Anyone interested in making up a team for this? Steady pace, just want to have a good day out and finish.

If you look at one of the other threads on this page you'll see that powdered toast man wants a partner, although it looks as if he doesn't want a steady jog round the course!
