I'll just grit my teeth and get on with it.

44 - 18 =26.
So in 26 years ill be able to run without my layers.
Good on ya! I decided to give it a miss this year as getting cramp during the roaches which has really knocked my confidence...was regretting it today though whilst i was sat at home eating a bacon buttie thinking about all of you at Pendle

Everyone gets cramp Al, boost your confidence and get some Nuun's tablets.
Glad to see uni is improving your maths

Ive even got the scars to prove im a true fell runner....after only one race aswel

Glad to see uni is improving your maths

Ha, well 44-18 is slightly more easier than what ever the sum was for that thread.

I have to say, I am very proud of my first fell running scars

Done a little more than the one race now though, then again, I am a bit manic... I think hmmm, fell running, and promptly run all races in the South wales Summer series plus some long ones elsewehere... bit mad

I am carp at maths though...

I'm crap at scars, only got a nettle sting today
If your mad, Hanneke, the Fellrunning community is the right place to be

[Hanneke]

I do feel right at home, I admit it

Evening Onehill, How ya doing?

An example that proves both the scar and my madness:

I was tripped up at the start of Man v. Horse earlier in the year... I fell on my knees and top of my shins, it hurt! I almost fainted but tried to keep moving... I wasn't going to give up in the first mile of a 22 mile race now, was I??? So after a couple of miles things eased off a bit and I finished the race all right. I joined some of my friends who had already finished to wait for those who had not yet... and they pointed at the top of my left shin.

There was a huge swelling and lots of bruising and when I touched it, the tibial tuberosity was actually floating on top of my shin oh dear, I had fractured it!!! It even squeeked a little when touching it... my (male) friends were all grossed out and insisted I'd go to the first aid people and A&E... but a just had a pint and an icecream and all was well :-) But now I have this HUGE lumpy tibial tuberosity sitting on top of my shin... ah well...
