    Re: Round Rotherham Race. 50 M

    Does anyone know if it's been raining for the past 5 days around Rotherham like it's been doing in Manchester? Please say it hasn't (but I'll deal with it if it has :wink.

    Look on the bright side Nick. Maybe it'll have washed some of Rotherham away, & cleaned the canals out :w00t:

    Well, if Leeds is awash (and it is) what hope for Rotherham?

    Sorry nick, plenty of dampness here! On the plus side, it's made the road shoes or wave harriers decision much easier!

    Thanks Paul. Crosslites for me then.
    It finally stopped last night and the sun is shining for the first time in nearly a week. Saturday should be dry and still mild. :thumbup:
    I'm quite looking forward to this again. I've been dreaming of colourful cartoon maps and PBs. Only one will be real.

    No idea what the % of each is. start - lots of tarmac footpath/ cycle track and throughout race a fair bit altogether but also some very muddy fields and the bit near the abbey and kepplers are both off road.
    Not sure which I'll wear yet but taking crosslites and Vasques
