Nice one Yiannis and thanks to the marshalls who put up with some really grotty conditions but still maintained good spirits. The course was very good indeed, a steady run out along a track gave way to a boggy, rocky path heading up and round the back of the Cwm. After that it was intermittently rocky and boggy and pretty challenging to say the least, after a mighty battle over some more bogs the final push up to the first summit seemed relentless. I hope the runner who twisted her ankle on the awkward summit terrain hasn't done anything permanent. The descent off the last crag was mind blowing! Very fast, very rock strewn and a total buzz. After a cautious ascent i was able to use it to my advantage and picked up about 6 places dispite the hazards coming thick and fast, i'd say to anyone who likes a technical descent to run this one up the flagpole- no footpath, just hazards! The run in down the disused railway was unbelievably boggy and really energy consuming, i picked up a couple more places by choosing my routes wisely.
This run has definitely got something about it, i think it's the feeling of isolation and remoteness and the lack of easy running. It's a shame the clag was down as the views must have been cracking.
