Just wondered if there were going to be any Pirates up at this race on the weekend. I'm going up Friday, and thought it might be a chance Thor me to actually meet up with one of you.
let us know how you get on - i know they are desparate for marshalls and are actually paying people £10 travel costs, i would have done it but got other races
Well, I survived, of sorts. Event was well prepared, from my limited knowledge. It was definitely an eye opener, being my first ultra type event. I think I went in a bit blind, having only ever done 1 marathon so far. But, I got a new distance PB and a new found respect for all you nutters that can keep going, and going, and going... Got a new target to aim to beat next time, onwards and upwards.
At Belvoir Castle on the border of Leicestershire and Lincolnshire. We have had some great feedback and next years date is 20/21 Sept if anybody fancies it

I wanted to do the 10km but lack transport - will think good thoughts for the 24 hr race - mucho respect for that!

I'm not officially a Pirate as only just found out about them, but will be in a team doing Equinox24! Good luck...I hate running!
Keep an eye out for me, I'll be the one with a motorbike next to my tent.
Cool, will keep an eye out.

Well done, Richard!
Was this at Llanberis? I was up there this weekend packing my son off to Bangor Uni. Stayed in a B&B that had athletes in.
Nah, this was near Grantham. I think the Llanberis thing was The Brutal.
Ahh I see
