Longshaw Sheepdog Trials on Sat 8th Sep 2007

70 starters, Local LeagueNice weather for running on the hills; no rain, not much wind and a tad cool. No records today though. Unfortunately, about an hour before the race, a helpful soul was walking the moors and cleared about a mile of “litter” that the course markers had put out the previous evening! What can you do!!
Simon Harding won for the second year and improved his time. Jon Morgan was just behind him, having been hampered by the wombling activities of the helpful soul mentioned above. He got the V40 trophy. Jenny Johnson got the cup for first lady.
Tim Ray won the newly inaugurated prize for first runner who arrived by tractor and Elizabeth Bridgen was awarded the much-coveted and prestigious prize of the President’s Spurtle (honestly… it’s not in the Concise Oxford but try Googling it), for the runner with the muckiest legs.
Thanks to all of you that ran and marshalled, hope you enjoyed it. For those of you that didn’t turn up this year, hope you enjoyed what you were doing half as much as the rest of us did. If you see a bloke on the hills with a load of red and white tape sticking out of his rucksack please throttle him with it.
See you all next year.
