Anyone got the report from Telegraph? Was it a write-up by a budding forumite journalist...
Never mind the Torygraph, there's a double write up in the Keswick Reminder
Bit late...just got back from Grasmere after a weeks training - including Skiddaw! Reminded me why I don't take to the fells often. 21st was about average, but given my two mates were 1st and 8th I should have been a bit closer to them.
Good race though, and nice cakes.
Didn't see you Daleside or I would have said hello
Oh, hope the guy who collapsed has made a full recovery
You fellas didn't do too bad at Cornforth Barriers race tho'....
Ans what exactly IS 14AC club?
Nottingham Uni Old Boys
I fancy this one.
Left me crippled for a couple of days. It's a non-stop pounding from top to bottom. Hurts. Of all the fell races last season this one took the longest to recover from...
I seem to have been up there every couple of weeks recently, bloody awful route for the most part - so steep in places that you may as well walk and then lots of sharp edged rocks on the summit. The return to Keswick is ridiculously fast and (I find) difficult to enjoy.
So, yes, I'll be there.
Like last year, when it was by Andy Greenleaf (?), Skiddaw Fell Race has been won by an unfamiliar name - Jon Duncan from club "Warrior". He must be some runner beating Jon Brown, Ricky Lightfoot etc... although the name is completely unfamiliar.
