Met XB at the end though- which was nice! It was so busy! Loved this race this year! Last time I ran it was 4 years ago and I did 1 hour 30 something. This year it was 1:22:02! Chuffed to bits! Though those couple of seconds are annoying me today! Sorry to have missed you all!!
Wriggling Snake Dec 2016 5:42pm, 5 Dec 2016 13,927 posts	Quote Pin Wriggling Snake It was an excellent race still. Weather was just about perfect, a bit of a stiff breeze at the end. very nice to see AL, but missed monseb1 and XB, which is a bit of a sham However, I felt is was better for me, I had quite a few people to say hello too, including Dennis the Menace and most of Marple Runners (that's the club I help out with). Tom Potson is a bit of a miss, but he's off doing a charity pub quiz series of events and looks pretty tied up with that, and he's done a few STK10s now. As for it being more serious, perhaps, it's a petty big race, and a very good test, and I ran pretty well, wasn't expecting it but I think I set off a little cautiously, which always helps.....

Well done on your PB. Hey Wriggling Snake, I'm thinking about defecting from Bramhall to Marple I just can't get to Bramhall training sessions in time.. is it possible to come and run with you guys on a Wednesday?

Wriggling Snake Dec 2016 8:12am, 6 Dec 2016 13,930 posts	Quote Pin Wriggling Snake They are a very good bunch of people. They also have 4 or 5 very good runners, they had a couple come in at 64/65 minutes, two of their fastest people ran in the Manchester XC on Saturday (One of them was Dennis the Menace :-)). In the main though they run because they enjoy it and work pretty well in their groups. Monsenb1, yes come along on Wednesday, Railway Pub Marple, we usually set off about 7, so get there 10 minutes before that, they explain the routes etc. I have one of the groups on Wednesday, Hill efforts! Not sure that will go down well after Sunday so I'll take it easy on people :-).
