All the best Chris and Rog - have a cracking run!

I've missed all the rain this week as i'm in recovery from last weekend's ultra. Given my injury plagued summer i was happy just to finish!

ptb- any sign of a return to any form of running from yourself??

Go well gents. A clubmate is also doing the Cornish on Sunday. He's not the fastest but is a total hardnut so will be fine I'm sure

Thanks all. Weather is looking good for Sunday 7-11 degrees, sunny and just a light wind.

All the best Chris.

Weather forecast looking more suspect here now, was ok but the rain across the night is now continuing into the morning between 10-12, winds light tho.

Good luck Rog.

Light winds in Cornwall has to be a bonus. It's usually blowing a hoodie of some sort!

Go well, both

I didnt trouble the parkrun competition times today at the inaugural Oriam Parkrun. Its pretty much off road cross country type run. 21:30, but a pretty decent workout. Beaten in the sprint finish by a guy who did 3:15 at Chester. I was a bit envious of what looked like a more than decent finishers long sleeved tshirt.
