Sounds like a tough little race - how does it compare to the Callow race in July?
thanks andrew

I notice that the route marked on the map doesn't visit all the listed checkpoints (e.g Checkpoint 3 at 430940). Could this explain the discrepancy in the distances? On the other hand the grid reference for Checkpoint 5 (Burway Hill) seems rather odd: is it really half-way down the hillside?

I ran it when it was a champs race in 2006, It was won in 42:33 which is outside 10 mins per mile - I don't believe that the top guys are running that slowly on what is a very runnable route. Course might have changed since then I guess.
....and this years random distance... 5.1 miles.
Well done TimW!
I've just decided I don't trust you anymore.
I'm suprised you were not partaking mr fellrunner.Have you still got Butt-tock troubles or like me can't do sats ?
Well done Tim W,performance of the day goes to Anna Bartlett,knocking 30 secs off course record.
Well done Tim, hope you can hold your form over the season as you're in my fantasy fellrunning team.
Rodder, dunno what's up with me. Re-injured my butt falling over at the last Dash In The Dark, since then I've had a cold, conjuctivitis & generally feel crappy all the time. I love my training, but I've probably had 3 runs I've enjoyed in the past 2 or 3 weeks. Maybe I've got a virus or just need a good long rest.
I sometimes have difficulty getting to races as my wife works every other weekend & I look after the nippers.

Bloody hell,if you were a dog they'd have put you down.Rodder, dunno what's up with me.

I find some seriously long zed sessions often does the trick if i feel under the weather....in fact i often use this tactic even if i'm feeling fine
Take care,see you soon
ps.vit c and iron might help
