August 2022

Thanks again for entering our race. We hope you ‘had a good time’, whether or not you ‘did a good time’.

70 folk set off and 70 folk came back, all in one piece and mostly having enjoyed themselves over the course, accurately measured at six Yorkshire miles (other units of measurement are available…).

As far as I know no-one got too lost. Having ‘a not too hilly or technical’ fell race sometimes makes it a bit harder for the out and out fell runners, a bit easier for the fast and flat speed merchants, and so it proved, with places changing throughout the race.

Many thanks to all the marshals, timekeepers, and to Jo, Tony and Michael for helping me mark the course, Wendy and Matt for sweeping, and to expert race starter William for setting you all off (and his mum Emma for allowing him to stop up late).
