So I ddn't make it. I feel bad. I really wanted to.
I hate making excuses but...
a) I'm still coughing and spluttering from last weekends disease.
b) All 4 Jolivers have been ill. The two eldest are in still in bed puking their guts up.
How did the day go?
Oh blow, sorry you've not been too good, it would have been a cracking race for you to do. Wonderful weather, loadsa people out cheering, great event.
Saw Hopey, Swoop, Grass Snake, Stagger, Pike, oh and Moo+2 cheering us on. 1st time I have done a short race, hurts like hell but its over before you know it.

Well done everyone.
I enjoyed watching the race unfold.
It was a lovely day to be a spectator, i'm not so sure if it was as lovely running though
To the Regiment - I Wish I Was There
Well done to all who raced I had a nightmare but not bad though since was first race since I did a marathon. Next on the agenda be paddy's pole and three peaks.
Not sure I enjoyed all that road stuff
I agree with you about the roads, alot more than i expected. I was goosed when i hit the road at the bottom, my legs didn't work
think everyone was f****d when they hit the road section.
Had a great time. All that support was brilliant!
Thou not entirely sure I was this enthusiastic about it when I started the final climb to the pike thou!
My feet are still burning!!
If I do it next year and thats a big IF, then it will be road shoes for me and not trail or fell shoes!!
The best bit about the race, sitting outside the Crown after the race with a Pint in the sun!!
My feet have been fine. I put it down to the foot baths and hydrotherapy pool at Total Fitness.Originally Posted by hopey
