    Well done Clairster image

    Sorry I didn't see you but I was waaaaaaaay too slow as I predicted earlier! It 's particularly impressive that you managed to keep up the pace when feeling sick from half-way. I was the same but I decided to walk between portaloos and take photos instead. Funnily enough, I did a lot of fast walking and now 2 days later my legs are really aching badly. They don't usually as I am not used to walking very far- mainly from the front door to the car! I didn't get a Peanut Butter kit-kat to be honest but Stew gave me his with him being vegan (and probably knowing there would be a riot otherwise!)

    Well done to all those who ran last weekend!! image 

    Morticia - fancy this run next year?

    http://www.slmm.org.uk/

    If anyone is interested this needs to be entered as teams of 2 unless you want to walk it...  If anyone fancies doing this (slowly!!!) with me, let me know!

    "WANSFELL CLASS: (Team Event) Winning time 7-7.5 hours total. This class and the Bedafell class will be held over the same course. The Wansfell is designed for runners as a shorter alternative to the Harter Fell."

    BUT

    "Milk and beer will be available at the Mid-way Camp, but that’s all!"

    I could have done without the 'celebrity' attention on the flight home. Somehow they had no record of me being on the flight even though I had been sat there for 20 minutes. This was just after 3 girls from my work turned up and sat next to me having been over to a team meeting for the day. All very strange.

    Forgot to say well done to Management on her PB and also that I was chatting to a cap called Kevin in the pub after the race and it turns out he is 'How Far ?' from the thread. He ran 2.54 anyway which is pretty impressive.

     Not looking good for FLMimage

  • Options

    FOAR-How Far is one of our more modest runners but a bloody good runner, well done on the sprint, notice how quiet TST is, well done Mgmt.

  • Options
    Clairster--Well done for the 'sheer bl**dy-minded stubborness'!

    Morticia--"I decided to walk between portaloos and take photos". Classic!!

    BC--That looks fun!

    FOAR--Great to hear that HF is racing again. 2.54? He must have been using it as a training run!
  • Options

    TB -TST and Management are travelling around Ireland this week so don't read too much into the lack of a response !

    Clairster - Well done again especially as you weren't feeling too good.

  • Options

    GBM - join in!!!! i think it sounds ace.

    My FLM cheque hasn't been cashed either.  Oh well!! I can handle a second rejection image

    White Peak entry forms are out, might prepare for that instea, I believe its a good one?

  • Options

    Just had a Matthew massage - ouch is all I am going to say!

    Kwaka - we're not doing derwentwater but will be around to eat Saturday night - there's the Ramblers Bar at the Inn on the Lake or the Travellers Rest so we can decide then. Didn't do Garburn but it's probably the same Wilf's.

  • Options

    GBM - have you found any pics of yourself? Can't see anyone I know except Andy Titley and a chap from Macc.

    Is it me, or did the bloke who led for 21 miles have a very strange style?!

    Kwaka - we'll be at the track tomorrow so don't forget the stuff - I'll definitely need it as you have to take jackets ect with you on the race.

  • Options
    Minnie6--I wasn't on the telly and now i'm not on the photos! I'm sure i ran the race!!

    You're right! That bloke who lead for the first 21 miles did have a style that all of us would find strange. It's called FAST!
  • Options
    Spotted Simon H on 7571, GBM and J8 and 7623, M6 on 7627, Isaac and El C on 7644, Nic Ham 7622, Mr S 7676, M6 7723


    .... I got bored then !

    GBM-it's the camera lens.

    GBM - the camera never lies.

    BC - WP is fab,  I am defo doing it again. Beats a city mara any day.

    TB - keep forgetting - will look into it when I remember!

    Snowdonia - marathon photos now on-line @ www.marathon-photos.com

    clairster - many congrats on your Dublin performance - you must be mad though - the idea of starting to suffer at 14 miles (was it?), knowing that you had 12 more miles to go, and sticking at it, is mind-boggling to me - mind you, I'm not a "marathon person" full stop image

    oh, and re Wilmslow, there are too many other (nicer) HM's around the same date that I would rather do in 2008, but maybe 2009...? 

    bikerchick - just to underline what clairster said - if you can't think of a very good reason NOT to do White Peak, get your form filled in

    Kwaka - did you Garmin the ascent on Passing Clouds? It was advertised as 1800ft, but going off the map it looks less to me (more like 1550ft?) 

    GBM - if you're gonna extend the race list to the end of May, I predict it will get very messy...
    (I'll be adding to it soon image)

    Great pics of ST with me running alongside on page 7. Run the slide show and theres a couple of me, shall we say emptying my nostrils.....lol Yourt mate Pete is on the same set GBM.
  • Options
    GBM - the camera never lies.
  • Options
    Daz - I've already filled the form in! but i'd most likely be going for the half, I really don't have the time to train for a marathon, although i'd love to do one again at some point.
  • Options

    BC - Post the bloomin form then!
    if I do White Peak it will be the Half
    I need to find out the date of the Fairfield Horseshoe FR first though, as it might clash...

    having threatened to vandalise the race list, I am surprised (nay, astonished) to find that I only have one definite to add atm, namely the Haweswater HalfMara...

    just wait till the 2008 FRA calendar comes out though... image
