    Well I decided to cheat and use an online poetry generator. Here is the result:

    and very face there he
    at and with on big
    face a hill in rochdale
    through got big brambles and
    marl very on big and
    ran marl and very dirty
    I guess computers aren't very good at poetry.

    LOL Danbert - I used to run for Middleton Harriers in the mid-90s, had 2 really good years with them - then moved house, so had to defect!

    Good natured rivalry and a bit of verbal jousting between the two 'giants' of the South East Lancashire running scene adds to the spice a bit.

    Re: Northern XC Champs

    Has anyone seen a map of the course, how many laps etc?
    I know it is listed as 12K but it was supposedly 12K last year at Blackburn but turned out to be shorter.

    Felt like 12k last you Swoop I can tell you.
    I hearda rumour that it would be similar to the course used a few years back.

    I've done at least 3 Northerns at Heaton Park and its different every time. Apprx 12mins per lap for the leaders so probably a touch less than 12k but if its shorter it just means people run faster!

    The last one was pretty unpleasant as it was and it looks like my prayers for a dry spell are going to go unheeded so I predict a couple of drownings amongst the U13s and an outbreak of trenchfoot across the northern counties.

    Regardless of how long it is, it's still bloody hard work.
