What gets me angry is people who have no experience of the sport coming out with stupid remarks like the knobs from wessex and lancaster,fair enough everyone is entitled to an opinion but at least come out with something constructive,fell running getting these headlines is not good,and anyway the OMM isn't really fell running anyway
F*** 'em!!! they were only interested in disaster stories and dissing the OMM organisers yesterday!
Let em write about the 2012 Olympics instead!
Run and become...
Laura - get yourself up to Edale (Peak District) next Sunday - there is a scaled down "mini" mountain marathon taking place (one day, no overnight camping, only out for 3 hours)
you will be welcomed with open arms, sorted out with kit and escorted round at your own pace
More from The Times... It's about living, not dying
A balanced article - well done Laura.
We might not like Mark Weir's comments, but reporters are bound to report them and he did provide practical help.
Another report
