Re: Coniston Fell Race
Good day out yesterday. Took it steady (after the previous weeks exertions at the 3 peaks) - well thats my excuse. Managed to glance at the stunning views & was in awe - the little mist added to the spectacle. According to the marshalls on the Old man was on schedule for a 2 hr finish - but they've not seen my feeble descending technique.
Arrived at the same time as Brett but did not see any other forumites - Brett did not see you in/ outside the pub afterwards.
Any sign of any results?
Ended up doing the race, finished just inside two hours, first lakes race, so I'm quiely pleased with myself.

Interesting gap between 3rd and 4th/others....
That's where Angela was before she got lost. Led astray by others I'm told.
Strange decision not to do Stuc a' Chroin (Scottish Champs) or Llangynhafal.
Then again, Coniston is the best race and most sociable weekend too.
Anyone know the story behind that. Who was the Pied Piper?That's where Angela was before she got lost. Led astray by others I'm told.
I think it was one or both of the Dark Peakers Tony Heron / Jon Morgan.
Can only really have herself to blame though.
Shame, cos she was flying and would probably have broken the record.
BTW Graeme - did you used to climb with SUMC ? (that's Salford not Sheffield !)
Yes I did, started in '97 gave up climbing and started running about 18 months ago.
