Well Steve, if you'd said that about 2pm yesterday, I'd have told you to bugger off.... However, as is the way for all of us, the passing of a few hours and a couple of pints means that I am looking forward to next year!!!Originally Posted by stevefoster
The contouring and slimy tussocks aren't my usual bag, and those climbs and descents are huge. Did 4.02, so well under 4 next time..... And as for the tussocks and slime, I needed a bit of talking to..."Man-up and get on with it!"
The last third was great, but my ankles were battered and having slid down on my 'arris a couple of times, there were little stones and grass stuck up mi shorts. I'll spare you the details, but it's not pleasant... Approach grass surfing with caution and preferably cycling shorts:wink:.
Bloody tough route, but if it was easy it wouldn't be a proper fell race would it?!
Again, thanks to all. I imagine marshalling up there in poor weather would be tough, and a big responsibility for the RO to take on.
You alreet, Steve?
