    The Gladstone 9, 9th Aug '08

    This race is a counter in the WFRA's North Wales series next year but not a race I've heard of.

    Does anyone have some info on it?

    Cheers.
    I've just decided I don't trust you anymore.

    Its name was "Leg End 9" for the 2007 race.

    For 2008 it starts from the Gladstone Hotel, Dwygyfylchi, near Penmaenmawr.

    Winner was Adam Peers of Loughborough Uni, Liverpool Harriers and, today, Pensby Runners, who won the Green Green Grass of Home three weeks ago in his first fell race of the year! He outsprinted Richie Roberts and Gilbert down to the finish - he's a steeplechaser so perhaps that's a good discipline for descending fellrunners.

    As for me four races in five days so I died towards the end but I'm still alive!!!

    Yes, but wish we'd known to put on sun cream! Great pictures. Also thanks to all the organisers and marshalls - especially those who said I was looking good as I trundled round at the back.

    You must have seen the photo of a very bedraggled me! I was about 30th then approaching Tal y Fan but made a bit up over the bog to come in 24th. Yes, today I confined myself to shifting sheep, digging up spuds and sundry other domestic things - will have a rest before the Beacons next Saturday!

    Hope you found out what Wormstones are!
