Herod Farm Hill race

[simgreen78]

If You are racing tonight ask Richard to bring it along.

Regrettably not, Saturday went fairly badly for me so I'm having to rest before running again Wednesday. Booked in with Physio Friday as this intermittent running schedule I've been forced into last couple of weeks simply won't do.

It was all going so well up until post Grindleford Gallop!

Me and Fleeter will be representing CVFR tonight.
Done this race the last 2 years both fairly slowly just under 32 and last year it was 33 but im hoping for at least sub 31 if not 30...so give me some stick if im running slowly

Have a good un mate dunno what the grounds like but it may be hard so youd be in with a good chance of a fast time, good luck.

A long stretch of the final run in has been re-surfaced since last year so that run in should be even faster.

Will be down there tonight helping out and cheering at the first bend

I'd forgotten just how much I enjoy this race. Thanks Andy and team for making it all happen again.

Should be available for everyone to view even if you don't have a Facebook account.

Given the context of the race, does that second climb warrant a mention in the 'most lung busting ascent thread'?

Well done to Andy, superb organisation again.

Here's my photos - http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/GeoffB.../HerodFarm2010# - sorry if I missed you, the battery went flat! But that wasn't as bad as getting back to my bike to discover that the batteries in my front light were flat! Luckily a good chunk of my route home was off-road.

But why did I think as I climbed the second ascent that there was another to come?????

Wishful thinking - or just your brain starved of oxygen playing tricks on you.

I think Mrs Second to Last enjoyed the change, standing with Geoff B cheering people on, instead of racing up the hill
