    Cracking photos, that one of the bloke who runs for erewash is a classic.
    What a race, nearly got blew off the tops a few times.
    Wicked cake too.
    well done all, nice to meet Daz H even though pudgy didn't introduce us properly.
    Better luck next time pudgy, must've been a bit of drag from your lardy arse!

    i got blew over twice and fell on my ass 3 times on that last descent but really loved the route.
    ran lots of the return journey with the lady from calder valley who spured me on so thanks to her , not sure of her name but i hope she got first lady. Saw Sally Newman out walking as well. The first climb hurt like hell but managed to pick up a bit after that once i was on familiar territory.
    Some serious gusts on top but it was a case of got to keep running. Ran part the route the day before but couldnt find the last descent which i have to say is one of the most thrilling ive ever done.
    thanks to all who helped and great cake and tea after.
    just seen my photo , andy howie will be proud of me
    def do this one again
    must be very tricky in the wet

    [hands up] i am that fallen runner from Erewash : ) - I thought the camera guy had seen a rare bird, and not the hilarity of me trying to descend Calfow Pike on my back side

    brilliant race / cake / tea / company / pics - well worth the drive up from Nottingham

    Thanks Daz - give me a couple of months i will be back to battle u once more ma friend

    James
