The weather was sunny and cool with strong gales on the tops which made it tough going. Very dry and hard underfoot meant fast&nbsp; running but dusty and slippy on the downhills. The race was being used as a trail for the WMRA long distance championships meaning a very good top end to the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: blue;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Some excellent DPFR performances notably Oli Johnson (7th) and Nicky Spinks (2nd FV40)<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"> and John Hunt (3rd V40)<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: blue;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">Best result of the day was a win for the mighty V40 men (no bias here)with John (18th) , Me (30th) and Tony (121st) getting the better of Pudsey and bring home the trophy that we lost last year. What&#39;s more we won a pair each of &pound;100 salomon running shoes for our troubles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: blue;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">It would have been a double with the mens open were it not for Shettleston Harriers they packed in well in the top 20 to beat use easily but we hung in well for 2nd place. Oli, John, Me and Andy Thake &#8211; I have nice salomon ruck sacks for everyone!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: blue;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\">For my money this is the premier event of the year; incredible scenary, superbly organised, big competitive field and fantastic support I&#39;ll be back for the 5th time next year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"color: blue;\">MN<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: blue;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fantastic day again in the dales for the 57th Three Peak Race.
