Hehe, its a 'local race for local people' anyway. The past results I looked at on the Dark Peak site seem to just be for Dark Peak runners anyway .

I read this an raised an eyebrow..

The text you quote is the intro written by Matt for the website.

I wrote the rest of it for my club newsletter, so some of the references in there won't mean much to anybody else.

Matt is a TRC member, although first claim with Eryri. He asked me if he could use the article on the website.

Just to put things in perspective: a well supported local down south event was unable to publish its 2007 results for some weeks (it may even have run into months) as they had lost the website pass word.

I suspect that given numbers were being shouted out and scribbled down (as opposed to electronically dibbed as in 2007 and 2008) the whole process of getting them on the web, split times included, is taking the volunteer(s) concerned rather longer than anticipated.

That said I'm keen to see how my splits compare to previous outings.

Thanks to all at DPFR - Raymond

Stop whingeing. Bullock Smithy rsults came out last week. The race was last September. Didn't they have a results board at the race? Or didn't you bother to look? I don't know why RO's should feel obliged to issue any results other than the ones they put up after the race.

I'm with Margarine on this one. It's a fell-race, not the London Marathon. I bet you've got one of those computer things that tells you how long you took, how many gels you slurped etc anyway

I didn't make it to the village hall after - my legs were shot and it was beyond me to actually get there. Mind you I already know my time (ish) and I'm worried that the results will actually give me a slower time than I'm currently giving myself!

Stop whingeing.

I hope that's not directed at me 'cos I wasn't.
