Did feel abit of digression coming on along the lines of what defines a fell race, but that thread is well unravelled elsewhere.
Had a walk over parts of the course yesterday, but not to the top, hopefully the snowmelt will continue, there's still quite abit of snow about and some ice.
Anyway onwards to the Gisborough Woods later this morning, another in the North East Fell Series!

LOST TIME IS NEVER FOUND AGAIN, WHAT WE CALL TIME ENOUGH ALWAYS PROVES LITTLE ENOUGH.
Its been raining this afternoon/Evening, there has been a major snow melt, fell shoes a definite as it stands.

Definitely an interesting race and a good candidate for the North Yorks Cross Country series, if it wasn't for all the road. Could you not start a new category " the cross tarmacstry series" perhaps, or possibly "the slightly bumpy series" for all NYM races? You could develop a new style of shoe, a road one with retractable spikes - perhaps Q from James Bond could design them
bah humbug open your mind
