85 points from Mason Hill last night, please Daz. Me: 35:07 to Luke Beresford 30:27. Felt knackered going into the race but enjoyable nonetheless. Good to hear of your return to the fells, hope you keep going from strength to strength.

Excuse my ignorance but what and where is Mason Hill fell raceOriginally Posted by Sam W
Masson Hill is a low key fell race in Matlock Bath (southern edge of Peak District). It's the only AS I know of in that part of the Peak, come to think of it there are few others around that area full stop. 133 runners turned up last night - up a third on last year - well worth checking out if you happen to be in the area. All fairly runnable after the steep start.

Thanks for the update, Daz. First May score for me: 71 points at Chunal please. Jack Ross beat his own record by 0:52 with 25:58 and I beat mine by 1:50 with 33:37, so 71 points please.
Coming up in May is James' Thorn, Rainow 5, Marlborough Downs Challenge, Shining Tor, May Queen, Mount Famine, Lantern Pike Dash and Red Rose 100.
Didn't manage a scoring race in April due to being full of cold and missing Dick Hudsons race, not sure I can include Meanwood Trail race as although plenty of roots and rocks and a couple of short steepish climbs it still comes under my rule of thumb of 'could be in FRA calendar if organisers wanted it to' as only c560ft ascent in 7 miles.
Anyway further planned races in May/June to add to my current list include Jack Bloor race, Chevin fell race and Upper Wharfedale 3 Peaks challenge.
WAHEY! my highest ever points at Coiners today with 59!
this was due to most of the front of the field taking the wrong route and the winner being a V60! (in 1:05 as compared to normal winning time of about 55mins)
I knew my navigation skills would pay off eventually!
BritNick - so a fairly quiet racing month for you then?
First class DAZ well done Sir.
Is Britnick the new Tindersticks???
thanks Daz. on the previous page I posted my April score as follows. if that could be added that would be much appreciated. thanks (unless three peaks doesn't count?
"please can I have 73 points for April, for Three Peaks (3.38.31 vs 2.51.42). thanks Daz. Ben "
and for May I race Consiston (results awaited) and plan to race OCT. thanks
