    How was the ground? Firm, good, soft?

    Doh!

    Given how dry it's been in the last week (with only the possibility of a shower before Sunday) I reckon it could be quite firm. There's quite a lot of tracks as well by the look of it.

    You lucky buggers. Enjoy it.

    I expect Sunday to be a day of recovery - after the post race do in Ireland.

    I was up on Ilkley Moor Saturday and Beamsley Beacon / Round Hill area Sunday and it's very firm and dry. I might have worn road shoes at the weekend, if I had any

    Yes, the route looks tremendous and the views should be too given clear weather. Will see you and DT bright and early on Sunday.

    Brilliant run out this morning with Ady and Bob plus a couple of other friends. Nice route with loads of running, plenty of sunshine and tons of familiar faces; perfect! Good to meet Chris Brown too

    My first event for 3 years ! Was going really well in about 9th place til Beamsley Beacon, when I hit the wall. Eventually struggled home in 24th - 4 hours 26 mins (despite a wrong turning after Timble).
