    Some challenging conditions today with all the rain and mist not least being the crossing of Grizedale Beck. I felt my tired legs being pulled out from under me :w00t:


    Great job done by all the marshalls in the bad conditions

    spot on stevie, great effort from the marshalls, there was a bit of keeping warm disco moves from the marshall on St Sunday crag. great event - food was brilliant too. well done steve (again) and the pennine army, developing quite the raiding party these days!

    Amen to all the above: didn't envy the marshals - thanks to all of them. What a marvellous horseshoe this is; didn't see much, but thoroughly enjoyed it, especially after finding the much-discussed little scree-run off Sunday.
    Thanks to the organising team - fantastic event!

    The weather forecast was right for a change - but did it matter?
    It was more pleasant running in shorts and tee shirt than it was walking from the car to the village hall before the race. And what else would you do on such a day in the lake district?

    A brilliant day out - lovely camaraderie out on the route - enjoyed every minute of it, even that last climb.

    Hats off to the marshalls and thanks for the tea, juice, cake and butties at the end.
