I do have a confession to make though - although I'm plugging the race wherever I can, I'm not around that weekend!! Running a little relay race from Caernarvon to Cardiff. Haven't told the guys at the club that I won't be there yet!!

Know it's looking pretty similar for loads others.
From then on we're going to need a thread entitled "Hard Long Boring Training Runs for Amsterdam" :-)
Blimey, I started something there didn't I? Anyway, this Sunday.
So those of us not doing Hill West, shall we meet at the visitors centre 10 or 10.30? Then meet up with the Hill Westers at jamboree at 11.20.
What do we reckon?
Sunday's NLRISP is looking dubious.....
On a different note - which mountain did you go up last week? Wish I was going up one now - weather's beautiful and work should be abandoned on days like these!
Just went up Harter Fell on the Monday, which was a beautiful mountain with views over the Scafell massif which we had tried to do ALL OF on the Saturday (when I'd buggared my knee up!!) We'd got lost though, and failed miserably.
Osteopath thinks its just a minor strain of one of the cruciate ligaments, with the inflammation causing the problems. He knows that I hate hearing the 'R***' word, but he'll say it nonetheless :-(
I hear you shall be using my excellent B&B facilities shortly ;o)
Shall I make you jealous about getting out into the mountains? I'm off to Scotland on 26th for 10 days. Running a half marathon on the Saturday and then disappearing into the mountains in the far north west for a few nights.
Harter fell - very nice. Really, really wish I was there now. Haven't been out in the mountains since March when I was on High Street over near Haweswater on a beautiful sunny day with plenty of snow on the ground!
Strained cruciate ligament - ouch! Take it easy and hopefully it'll clear up.
Yes, was up in the Lakes at the beginning of March too (Ullscarf, High Raise) and there was a least a foot of snow. Had great fun making snow angels and doing somersaults in it :-)
B&B rates - a regaling with tales of mountain adventures will do me fine
"Hardly been on Scottish mountains"!!! The second person in a week to tell me that - I feel I'm on a mission to convert all proper mountain people to the far north west highlands - be warned!
Which famous mountain groups are up in the NW? Any I would have heard of? My knowledge of Scotland leaves a lot to be learned (and desired!). I have been up Ben Nevis and part way up Beinn Durain.
I could seriously embark on a lifetime of Munro and Wainwright bagging........
Famous mountain groups up in the far north - they're not that famous which makes then even better, less crowded. For what it's worth, there's the Fannichs, the Great Wilderness, Torridon and many others.
Beinn Dorain - went up about 10 years ago, did that and Beinn an Dothaidh. Managed to navigate by compass in awful conditions.
Ben Nevis - last did it when I was 6!! Entry accepted (I think!)for this year's Ben Nevis race - HELP!!!
I think I've heard of the Torridon, but not the others. The Great Wilderness sounds very 'real'.
The Ben Nevis Race. Flipping 'eck. Now you're completely barking!! (I'm secretly impressed though!). When is it? I've vaguely considered the International Snowdon Race. But Ben Nevis is half again as big, and a right buggar underfoot!!
URWFRC NLRISP trip to Scotland - "lost in mist and pouring rain....". What could be nicer? What is wrong with people who think that's not fun?!?!? Southern softies I suspect:-)
I could........
I've got a 42 miler (and I'm calling YOU barking!!) on the 9th - but as long as I don't pick up an injury I should be feeling well again by the 23rd.
HHHMmmmmmmmmmm? ponder ponder. Think I got up there in about 80mins when I WALKED in a hurry, shall have to have a look at last years results and see how 'last' I would be.
Go on, you know you want to :-)
Then we'll work on getting some of the fair-weather runners on this forum to go as well!!
