Hope the elephants didn't keep you awake on your second night. Obviously if you weren't Parklife I'd just be taking credit for finding running partners for random pirates
Hello helly d
Yes it was me who Parky ran with, I was late getting to the start but I did find her. Although I'm I'm not sure she planned to run with me as there were a few other Pirates there.
I know parky from another thread.
We are normally found on the thread slayers thread onRW.
Haha she mentioned the elephants in the room above.
How did you get Helly d was this your first Beachy
It was you I planned to run with Tommy ... all worked out well in the end after you got there about 1 min before the start.
Helly - the elephant had vacated on night 2 luckily or i might've had to tell them to pack their trunk.
Hope you had a good race - do you know if it was a PB? The results don't seem to be up yet.
There were indeed a few pirates, glad you found the right one,.Twas my 3rd Beachy and I managed to knock off the best part of 20 minutes off last year so I'm happy. I have a target for next year but I'm not admitting it till I know what the weather's going to be like.
Hey tommygun, I came in at 5.30 with pirate top on, had compression socks on, could have been me
What a fantastic run, I enjoyed every second of it!! The weather was amazing, scenery even better, and it was brilliant to meet some of the pirates for the first time. Was my firsy Beachy Head and I will definately be back again next year
The rainbow at the end was fantastic!
Hi pain is T
yep I guess that was you then, my wife and daughter said they saw you at a couple of points around the course and gave you the "come on Pirate" shout. Well done, that was my first and will be back nesxt year.
The results are out but unfortunately, due to what the organisers describe as a software glitch, only numbers rather than names are listed, apart from the top 10 finishers.
I have therefore suggested that the list of entrants' numbers is retained on the website, so times of friends and acquaintances can be checked.
if the list of entrants numbers are still on the website then surely both lists can be exported into excel and combined in a matter of minutes?
Did the course fine in 3.42. Really chuffed with that what it being my first BH and all. Marshals were great and spectators too with the encouragement. Trail was just about ok in road shoes, though nearly came a cropper in the downhill section in the first forest part, where the trail forked to the right. Was a bit wary of the seven sisters but absolutely loved doing them in the race, and felt really strong at the end. All being well, definitely coming back next year.
