Turner Landscape, English Championship (5). results.
Ideal running conditions for this race, all around the Duddon fells. Dry, clear, and cloudy but no clag. All very well organised, a compliment as it’s a newish event. Much strong, fast running.
As the Senior Men are confirmed as Championship winners, many congratulations are in order, to the depth of runners who have contributed and travelled, but especially to Rob Little who has successfully galvanised the troops so effectively.
Without checking the statistics, Judith – another very high finish today – must have completed something/many things, and the Ladies will get on the results tables after Edale, hopefully. Lloyd was also very high, we just need to see whether he’s got anything/everything settled.
Don’t know about the MV40’s, and the MV50’s packed well, now hoping for a boost in numbers at Edale, as several regulars can’t be there.
Well – after the triviality of the English, wot about the Holy Grail of fellrunning, the ian Hodgson – is this the year for the Men?
Arncliffe Gala – results.
Boulsworth – results.
Half and Long Tour of Bradwell:-~
Dark and White MM – from Totley, results.
Relays:- A while off, but worth thinking about. The Ian Hodgson, 4 pairs, is Sunday 8th October, and the FRA – Llanberis. Sorting out teams will be difficult, to put it mildly. Both events will involve hills probably harder than local climbs, so getting some creditable, dependable races under the belt will help selection. There will be plenty of willing runners, so wobbling around with injuries won’t really be very helpful….
Ben Lomond . Looking for strange new venues for next year, Carshare ponders over the Ben Lomond race, but only a maybe…Looks like a strong up and down affair. And looking at the results, I see that DPFR were represented this year, in May, John Rocke being 8th.
So if you’ve got any unpublished results, places we’ve hardly heard of, please send them in.
Monday – Summer Series (10) – Hurkling Howler.
