Calderdale Way Relay

I was reminded of this song as we approached Hough Gate Head Farm on leg 5 today:w00t:
Hope every one got past OK. Great race as usual - thanks to the organisers

Yep it was doing a crazy back scratching writhe around right by the stile when we got there. My partner went over first and then as I got over it lurched up as though it was going to give me a Glasgow kiss. Anyway good motivation to get up that hill quick sharp.

Cracking day for a run out - it was nice to have the wind at our backs on leg 5. And thanks to all the organisers.

Warfedale took the title, Leeds (I think) second. We (Sale) came 5th.

Great day out though, thanks to the organisers!

Great day today. Thanks to all the organisers, teams and Capns - you were all wonderful!

Not sure where we finished Martin. Certainly a cracking run though. Apols for my fast start. Need a big hill to slow me down on starts or I get carried away!

And a quick couple of thoughts from the GDH side of the run.
