Trunce

[soreeneater]

Just spoken to Mark re the warnings on the web and I do believe he has cured it. Speak to Mark (Kingsnail) if you want an explanation, don't ask me.

Thanks Mark BUT I'm still getting the message when I try to link to the Barnsley Harriers site.

Andy, Not sure if it was done at the end of the last race but at the narrow gap in the stone wall on the second descent the wall has collapsed. It might be nothing to do with the race but just so you know.

I wondered about that myself, as the stones looked fairly clean, but then again, the weather's not been too bad since 'race 1'

A friend of mine went under the fence in his first trunce a few years back as he's pretty small - poor form but pretty funny! When we bring a new runner to races we tell them to not even entertain jumping the queue.

even in Orienteering events where impassable objects (walls, fences) are marked thus on the map some people decide to 'not notice' them (normally the younger, more sprightly competitors who can get over them!) and it can prove dangerous to future access.
As for the Trunce gate, I'm the one who takes the 'interesting' lines at speed once we leave the track. It's a good place to make a move and leave people behind!

I think the only reason I took 3secs off my PB was because of the open gate next to the cattle-grid and the ease-of-access through the 'widened' squeeze at the top of the wood.

Just seen Kingsnails comment on the photo page. Disgraceful, it's not been out since that BG picture. LOL )

ba-ba sounds like a road runner to me

Sincerest apologies in advance

I won't be there tomorrow evening, as I'm on damned bloody lates again - for the next two weeks!!!!!!!!!!
(already had a week on them, so I must have upset someone badly!)

We had 9 members (inc. me) at 'race 2', so I wonder how many will attend tomorrow (there's at least one 'new' girl who ought to be there)

But, 'race 4' does fall on a 'day-off', so woe betide anyone who tries to alter that day, or asks me to do a bank-shift.


(thankfully, I'm also on day-off for the -already entered- Ilkley Harriers 'Trail-Race' on Monday 30th)

Where is Rob Little???

We were wondering that yesterday. He lives in the same area as me - I havn't seen him about in ages.

Andy - not running later if you need a hand with the finish or anything??? J x

Where is Rob Little???

Little Rob is currently furiously writing up his PhD thesis. He does still exist as he popped into the Union Beer festival for 20 mins on Saturday before heading back to the Lab. This was at gone 10pm.
