it is said that if you want to have a good race, do one the day before. I always did better on day 2 in mountain marathons.

Did 4th race in 5 days today at Lothersdale which was my 25th race of 2017! Don't reckon I'll get to 100 like Darren but I should manage at least 50 this year!

Hi Will
It looks like you've the racing bug.
A word of warning: it can become very addictive. Here's a run down of my last few years-
2010- 42 races 5 fell
2011- 86 races 64 fell
2012- 101 races 91 fell
2013- 126 races 121 fell
2014- 115 races 113 fell
2015- 102 races 95 fell
2016- 119 races 101 fell
2017- 38 races 30 fell
Go smash the 100 mate.

Well done Will - you've got your mojo back.
Where were you last night 'sticks? Thought we might see you at Lothersdale

Looks like 2013 was your biggest year. I actually got to 50 races that year (mostly fell) but I don't think I had reached 25 races by May in 2013.
Not sure whether it's possible for me to do 100 as I work Saturdays and have to book holidays around the big races I want to do! I race most Sundays but won't be able to do many doubles.
Haven't done any Parkruns yet this year but my hours might be changing to a 12pm start on Saturdays so I could do a Parkrun before work! Can they be added to my total?
