Great race, really well organised. Apologies for keeping the marshalls at cp 3 hanging around I took a new line to take in Goats Water! Next time I'll look at the map! Thanks to the sweepers for being lovely and mountain goat like! Thanks to all the marshalls, helpers and the RO - lovely.
I was there, didn't have the best of runs. Felt crap till the top of wetherlam due to being late for registration, no warm up & belatedly realising I'd only had a cup of coffee to drink all day. Picked up after that and finished around 1:35 in about 60th place I think. Must try harder....
I also thought this race was supposed to be 9 miles, turned out to be 7.5 :w00t: I was pretty confused coming off old man thinking we must have a strange run in to make it 9 miles, and then I recognised the path leading to the start and belatedly started to speed up. Whoops!
This was a great race as usual-one of my favourites of the year and always sunny!!! I was astounded yesterday at the big names it attracts; the top 5 reads like a who's who of fell running English champions, men and women. Brill to see that little country races like this still attract the best.
1 issue though with the selfish (male) runner who, on accepting water from Mike Robinson at the top of Swirl Howe poured a bottle over his head, thus preventing anyone behind him from having a drink!!! Thanks Mike for the dribble left over anyway....
