Photies? Here is a bit of the WHW/ Highland Fling. (Me, I was only out for a walk. Definitely not a race.)

Ultra training can bring tears to my eyes too - Only it's the feckin' branches from trees that smack in my face when i'm not expecting it. :(

57.5 Degrees of Pain
Ahh, Conic Hill Dvorak. Still provokes a shudder 28 years after I last did the WHW as a youngster with far too heavy a rucksac.

Funny you should say that Mr Pain, on my way up that day I passed a couple of young guys in just that situation, slumped on a banking. At least I was able to tell them it was only another twenty minutes down to Balmaha.

And another five days till the end :-O

It's good to hear the youth of today are no fitter or better prepared ;-).

Was that the day I fell & cracked my ribs MikeR? Running down Conic Hill is my favourite bit of whw, except for when it's icy :-/
