White Holme Circular race

[emmilou]

If ive got the right race, this is the first on the list for my club championship.

18th of Jan. 12m/1200.

Anybody doing it this year - any tips for if i do it? Ta.



and.....where is it?

You'll be wanting a lift then?? Green and Blacks 70% dark choccie is the current currency - that or the mint one!!

Was thinking of doing this race, but is it a tester (good climbs etc) or is it just like a tough cross country run?

This is a good race with some nice quick running. There's one stiffish climb near the start then about 8-9miles of flat trails before reversing the climb (in my case last year looking over my shoulder for Swoop, who I'd been told was an ace descender!) and back to the pub. Nice views over to Stoodley Pike

No, you got it wrong. They said he was going downhill fast!

How's your foot mate?

No better no worse unfortunatly.

Still did Ovenden on Sat and Ilkley Moor last night, and that didn't really make it any worse, just doesn't seem to get any better? Limping today though.

Hard ground probably not helping either. Ilkley Moor was solid on Sunday morning wen we had a steady trot round last night's route

I'd like to do White Holme Circular but not sure as I've got something else to do that day

[AJF]

My attendance should be pretty certain although I do need to have a run round the Rombalds route at some point. You fancy that at some point DT?
