Christmas Cracker on Sun 17th Dec 1995

194 startersA popular little multi terrain race with almost 200 crackers going around and over the Roaches. Starting at Upper Hulme (as do all the races I have ever done in the Roaches!) the route follows the road for a mile before turning up past Rockhall and thence along the top of the Roaches all the way to Bearstone Rock at Roach End. Along the top the vicious easterly wind was attempting to throw everyone off the edge. Turning East onto the roads for the next two miles then off road again descending though Blue Hills down the muddy valley towards Upper Hulme with a short sharp climb at the end back to the \'camping field\' and the finish. It was along the top section that my right contact lens popped out. From there on I only seemed to have 2D vision so had no idea where the rocks were beneath my feet. I managed to pick up four places along the road but lost them all again pussyfooting down the valley.
