This was my first fell race and would like to say thanks to all involved, especially the marshalls who were very encouraging. Despite being nervous at the start, I really enjoyed it and will be back next year.
Cheers Andy and everyone involved. Another great race, although a few too many fast people today.
what a cracking race, friendly marshals and some great views from the top of the three peaks. the food and pint at the end were very welcome!
thanks to everyone that organised it.
Just a reminder for the 5th Bollington (festival) 3 Peaks fell race on Saturday 18th May at 2pm.
Registration is from 1pm at Bollington Brewery on Adlington Road, Bollington. Park in The Vale Inn car park, at the Rangers Station or Cricket Pavillion car parks (all on Adlington Road) or probably better to find parking on the main road before walking down Adlington Road.
Cost of entry is £5.00 per runner, which includes a specially brewed beer (Fell Runner) and food provided by the Bollington Brewing Company.
The race is 9km (5.6 miles) with 370 metres (1220 ft) of climbing around a route that includes Kerridge Hill, White Nancy (with partying marshalls) and Nab Hill (with cowbells).
Here is a link to a map of the route: http://www.mh.k313.com/mh/general/Bo...ell%20Race.JPG
The current course records have been set by Simon Bailey at 37 minutes and 9 seconds and for the women by Olivia Walwyn-Bush at 42 minutes dead.

"Page not found" with that link. I was intending to do this.
The link to the map should work now
Thanks Skelly. Printed off successfully.
I've not done this race before.
Looking forward to it. See you all there on Saturday.
Fantastic route Tim and the beer / refreshments cannot be faulted. I'd be there myself, but in the Lakes. Enjoy it.
