Good to see all the ben nevis racers in fort william on the piss.
Nice to see the clayton and bingley lads acting like true englishmen.

I've found if you walk down (or slide on your bum involuntarily on the grassy bits) you dont get the quads problem! a lot of us last night in the pub were saying that it was so soft that our legs werent hurting - however others of 'us' can hardly walk today!!

I've got a simple target of 3:17 for next year to beat. however i wont be signing up for this again - and please you must all remind me of this come january! It is very very hard!

Daleside - reading your post has got me tempted for next year..........you can speed past me on the final stretch if you want............do I need to lie down in a darkened room..........

Some storming runs form Daz, Fleeter. Well done everybody for yesterday.

Great day out even although the weather was a bit iffy. Did anyone make it back down to the Red Burn without taking a tumble? I think I bum-glided down most of the grass section.

came a cropper early on in the descent and destroyed my favourite gloves in breaking the fall to save me smashing my face on a rock (I think the poor guys that helped me up had assumed I'd done just that given the expression on their faces - sort of looking at me with one eye closed just incase it was messy - but could have just been the driving rain in their faces....) - anyway - had a fantastic bum-glide down to the river and just embraced the falls from thereon - my last one just infront of a photographer - anyone know any links to photos?

great race
