Grin and Bear it

[Mike D-H]

A big thanks today to all at WMRT and, as has been said earlier, great to meet up with all.

Thanks to Rodders for some key navigation today! - I had a great round but the tank was empty by the time I got to the end ..., particular thanks to Mrs Stagger and Socks for your encouragement at the end, I couldn't quite manage to stay with you both

Just had a couple of Rescue Ales with dinner, a great end to a cracking race.

Please have a look at my bog within a day or so for full write up and gory details!.

Again, this is a great event. I may be slow but I'll be back.

Cheerio

Splendid day today - Many Thanks to Woodhead MRT for perfect organisation
veritable whos'-who of a forumite turnout
impressed to see Socks and Mrs Stagger haring away into the distance
tweaked my knee on the descent to Lady Cross (ironically one of the best bits of running on the whole route ) and had a bit of a bad patch thereafter, but perked up towards the end and clocked about 5 hours

I had a khaki baseball cap, black top, Khaki shorts and a 10 litre OMM sack. Were you wearing a buff?

Are you the chap who me and Socks met in the woods? You'd slowed down a bit as you had cramp and we walked up the hill with you.

Yes, that was me. I perked up a bit later and got round half an hour faster than last time. It was a good day out.

Brilliant day out today. What a difference nice weather makes! Shame about the lack of food ... Good to see a load of you forumites. Had a really good natter with Mrs Stagger. I'm sure all that talking slowed us down by a couple of minutes, not to mention all my bush stops! Hope you enjoy the beer Trevor.

I'm guessing you are refering to the road crossing food, Yes minor hiccup as the guy who sorts this(Lyndas friends) is living in the middle east (Dubai not york ) This has already been rectified as we have been promised some by a local wellknown supermarket.

Food at the end though was excellent I thought. Welldone Adam!! He's a new member of the team.

Agreed! Was worried by how grey it looked this morning, but it brightened up nicely although the bog monster was still fairly ravenous as my friend found out my going for the full-body-bath (neck deep!) - cheers to the bloke who pulled her out! As usual massive thanks to Woodhead MRT for an ace day out

A bit like this I would Imagine. taken yesterday at the bog monsters lair...

Hmm can't get the picture to load

Try look here on the Woodhead MRT face book site

How about we have a look at your blog instead?

Thanks for all the comments I'll pass them on to the team, If any one has any constructive comments please PM me

Entry should be simpler next year as we plan to run Long course, short and race, Please note no mention of walkers or runners. this should avoid confusion about entries and start times.

We're not sure about exact figures yet but if it wasn't our most successful fundraiser it was very close. Thanks to all those who got entries by raising sponsorship money. there were quite a few.

Results for the race should be along soon.

May be this will work....Attachment 3984

Ian - that photo is just scary! Saw the chap at the end. Think he'd been a bit freaked out by it, but was happy enough at the end. Steve S also had a good dunking and a girl had some interesting make up - or was that an incomplete mud pack on her face? I do think the bogs were worse this year - but the weather was brill. A really good day. Thanks again.

I presume 198/31 was me (Rachel Findlay-Robinson), although my race number was definately 193, though I guess that doesn't really matter
