Stick to the flags and dont follow a red and white vest

Thanks to the organisers and marshals, i was expecting it to be a CV/KCAC fest but most must have done the PPP instead leaving a nice spread of other clubs. I must say i do prefer the terrain of Pennine mediums to that of Lakes mediums, Coledale was hell on my knees but this was like a walk in the park. It must be a bit of a bind doing this race after heavy rain, i went in up over my knees today and we're experiencing a drought at the moment.

I felt really fast today, probably because of all the flat running, after the monument i even managed to reel in a group who'd left me for dust on the way up. The flat start was good, it enabled me to sprint to the bottleneck at the stile and the first climb and get clear. It's not often i find myself at the front of a race, it may have lasted all the way to the stile if it weren't for the bionic Dark Peaker who was off like a scalded cat.

Sounds like a good run mr b - were you actually leading the race at the first stile?

Unfortunately I've been suffering with low energy levels this last 36hrs so didn't even consider driving over there, which is a shame as this looks like the fastest & easiest (ie nothing too steep descent-wise) of the Stoodley races.

I was in second approaching the stile but let a faster group go through before me, i'd only have hindered their progress on the climb which is pretty narrow. I'm a great believer in beating bottlenecks like this, even if you do have to sprint out of the field like 'the great i am'!

I had a similarly good result the the Settle tough trail, my best ever in fact, which is also very flat.

Thank you.

A very good and well organised juniors' day in a beautiful sunny setting.

There were six current (plus a few past) FRA Committee Members there, perhaps they knew that juniors would not be complaining about hats, gloves and kit checks but just enjoying their running.

Or maybe Mytholmroyd really is the centre of the universe!
