Export resultBurbage Skyline on Tue 20th May 2003
151 startersThe recent rain thankfully held off for the race, and gave us perfect underfoot conditions. Phil managed to overcome my early race charge to win comfortably, despite Alan Yates singing me on at Burbage Bridge (no there isn't a trophy for your mantlepiece Phil). Dave Allen cut through the field to take the V40 prize and Dave Tait held off his regular rival to take V50. Jenny Whitehead brought home a DPFR 1,2,3 in the race of the fairer sex race, and Mrs Moore outshone yours truly to take home a V40 prize, albeit running for 'Dark Peak Wives'.
Pleasingly several runners had chosen Burbage to be their ever first Fell Race (including 2 from Northampton!) and were really impressed with the course, the organisation, and the occasion overall. Thanks therefore to all club members for their help in marshalling, to John, Tom and Chris for the finishing line and Roy, Pete and Hilary for registration and results, and to Don from Totley for the 'forest trail' section of the race. Special thanks to our esteemed ex-president Mr Holmes who rang me the day following the race offering his services - I'll ask him to post the results envelopes and put the signs away!
