Well done everyone who ran and many thanks to all involved. Perfect conditions I thought; quite cool up top and completely clear.

I could have been hallucinating but while hobbling down the last descent a guy using walking poles came running down past me, not sure if he was in the race but he was doing well. It didn't look like the poles were helping much though.

Did I hear correctly at the start? That the Great Gable checkpoint time was extended by 15 mins?
