Having done this race last year, it was nice to return to Dufton again. Although finishing 46 seconds slower than last year, I was still pleased with my time of 1 hour 23 minutes and 6 seconds given the conditions at the top of that valley! Visibility was poor up there compared to last year and it was definitely more windy this time around. I almost got lost at one point but was caught up by another three runners and we soon found our bearings again.

How nice was that soup at the end, worth travelling 100 miles for! Thanks to all involved in the organisation of this race. Somehow, I think there might even be more runners next year!
I was one of these three runners that caught up with you (blue & white Bingley vest) and almost went wrong. Glad we didn't get lost, did not fancy running any further than we had to in the conditions as this was also my 4th race back after a nine year break being the furthest I have raced for some time. Thoroughly enjoyed the course, will be back next year. Have to agree the soup was great!
