[hopey]

Nice to see lots of friends of here today.I managed to find the scree on St Sundays :-)Well done to Achillie Rati

That was certainly a soggy one. Thank you to all the marshalls-especially the 2 at Grisedale beck assisting in the crossing. Great camaraderie out on the course-performance of the day has got to be from one of my fellow backmarkers who managed to get from St Sundays to the finish despite the sole of his Walsh being virtually detached from the upper part. Not sure how I managed to finish in a longer time compared to last year despite not having to do the dog leg back up the valley. Thank you to A. Ratti & the ladies manning the tea & sarnies table. Good to see everybody in such good spirits at the finish-commiserations to those that got timed out.

Right I'm of to have a yummy Gu desert - the blueberry cheescake yummmmm yum

Was out walking up there yesterday - hope the 2 guys we saw who came down to the west side of Grisedale Tarn and followed the path below Seat Sandal to Grisedale Hause got back on track (one was in a Lostock top) - especially after we later saw them coming back up to the hause from the south as we headed down towards Tongue Gill!

Well done to all who finished, was out marshalling on the Thirlmere side for another event so know what conditions were like.
Hope the guy i saw near the summit found the way down to Grizedale Tarn ok.
Just about dried out and looking forward to getting drenched up there again on Tuesday!!

Hi Hillbilly
Happy to assist, I knew those laces would come in handy 1 day - did seem like an epic adventure from that point & definetley a case of one for all, all for one. A pleasure to run in to the finish with Joanne & good to see you a few minutes later.

Will be on my hols in 2 weeks so won't be at 3 shires - shoes - a new pair definitely :wink:- no seriously what do I know - I tend to stick to Inov8's Mudclaws or Mudrocks.
