Fell Ponies??

[Mountain Goatess]

There are five of me and I'm running with a guy in a red top, Stephen Clough from Swaledale, they are nice pics so I'll order one. I look like I'm laughing in all of them. They were taken shortly before I fell over from not looking where I was going and nattering too much.

Spotted you Hes....looking far too smiley!

Eyoop Steve,

Good luck on Saturday just make sure you dont get mixed up and end up wobbling when you should huthering! Have a gud un! Not there this year as busy with prep for London Marathon.... temporarily gone over to the "Dark side" and become a mile munching Roadie! Dont worry it wont last.

Cheers Steve, best of luck with the prep mate, your a braver man than me fighting your way through all them roadies at London!

Cheers Steve...you look great too.

I've never nattered in a race before and I really enjoyed it, made me forget how many miles were left, think I might do that more often!

You need an eyesight test too Hes!
Nattering is the way forward in long un's, eats up the miles and hours, leaves you with a sense of enjoyment and numbs the pain, and it's free unlike footwear and full body cover:thumbup:

International Pony Update:
My son-in-law Nico, who's French, made his debut in a 'proper' fell race yesterday at Midgley Moor.
Having borrowed my vest, he appears in the results as the sole member of our new Gallic breakaway group, 'Fell Poney France'.
Maybe Amex could come up with a tricolore vest this year? Or one with a Pony and Coq logo? (Perhaps not. The mind boggles.)

Mrs C reckons Karlos will lead us astray in the mist as he has previous form at this race.

Im not even sure when it is but our entry is indeed in....and im not keen to be on the losing team!
