Iain, sounds like u had a good run. I know what u mean about starting too far back, when I run the 1st hill it was really hard I had to say excuse me to everybody as they were all walking and a lot of peopple took the p*ss at me coz I was running!
Well Done Creamcake?
Vampire took lots of photos, so I shall forward to those that I know and no doubt stick a few on our website.
Bad form on the few that decided to jump the queue for the gate and go through the hedge and over the fence, all within view of the farmer rolling the field! Do they want to give the Grizzly organisers problems? I wish I could remember their club name (they had all red vests), I'd write to them myself!
Sorry to hear of your injury MtdF, I thought you had beaten me when I saw you at the line, didn't think I would have missed you if you had gone by.
Roll on June! be able to stop at the Fountain Head and enjoy it properly! ;-)))
In total agreement with Moe (for once!) regarding June, Fountain Head and beer. What was your spot prize Moe?
So who's up for the Stagger?
Are you going cw or ccw in June?
BTW there are only 2 team places left for the Wessex Ridgeway if YTRRC wants to enter.
Lluvmud, please can we enjoy the summer first?!
JW, shhh! keep the Dream bit otherwise people will just think we're a load of p*ss heads!
MF, We always go cw (took a minute to figure that out!), Mixy was looking at WR team, I think I'm in the middle of nightshifts on the day.
I distinctly remember thinking, about two thirds distance that I didn't want to do the Grizzly anymore but now I think yeah I'll never miss the Grizzly! Anyone else?
Just been out for a 6 mile recovery run, my legs are really sore now!!
Anyone any idea when the photos will be up on the web?
Ran a few times round the netball courts with the school kids this morning, thought better of doing high knees etc!
up to last year they have always posted the photos to you, often quite a while after the event.
Lin & Juggler, u were running so fast I didn't even get a chance to c u! I'll have to catch up with u at the MSD:-)
Well Done all :-)How everybody's feeling? legs are a bit sore but I can still walk so that's ok, going for a 4/5 miles gentle run tomorrow night.
When is the Stagger?
MidsummerDream is now Full, I noticed yesterday on the website so i hope u all have already enter!
Hmg
Staggers in October.
The Grizzly is definitely an illness, I only ever planned on doing it once just to see what all the fuss was about..........
will I do it again .............. of course
90mins If you're looking for Richard's name on the results you won't find it - he had to pull out due to sickness - first time ever.
Is anyone doing Exmoor Seaview? (I think there's a thread somewhere). Lots of coastal paths and hills but without boggy bits and ???shingle. I'm almost tempted but it is twice as far as the cub..........
Creamcake, I tho my Terroc were great on off-road and road aswell, but I got a couple of bliters tho. What shoes did u have?
Plum, I hope when I was on your foot in the bog it wasn't your poorly 1!
LW, I'll be doing the Exmoor Seaview too, not sure where's the thread gone.
Hi 90 minutes:-) how's the training going?
found it again
I never got that close and dirty with so many men at the same time!
............. obviously I got out in the end!
HMG - I wore Saucony Approach (bog standard ones - sorry for the pun! - not the new improved Grizzly Approach!) - probably could have got away with my Hurricanes as there wasn't much mud and water. Turned my ankle near Beer Head Caravan Park (going back!) - not sure whether some support would have helped or not (I am an overpronator and have real trouble decided what shoes to wear doing offroad/multiterrain!).
Moe - if I'd been there I would have helped you out of the bog but I don't think I will ever have enough energy or legs to do the full Grizzly. I think the Cub is going to be my limit!
....... nice one!
