Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

Absolutely beyond belief - they pushed out the first two k at 5:15 pace. Talk about irresponsible. So I left them to it. The course is very twisty, lots of corners you compete to get round. But there are drinks stations everywhere. There must have been about one per mile! Everyone in long lycra tights and Craft jackets despite the blazing sunshine and 5 - 10 degree temperature. Like last Sunday's half really. At the finish: hot chocolate, buns, energy bars, fruit, water, energy drink ... not bad for 15 quid. Chip timing but no split mats. My time above is my Polar time. I wasn't really very accurate - my garmin time was 3 sconds slower! Don't know my offical chip time yet either. (Now amended - official time was 2 secs faster than Polar time, 5 secs fastert than Garmin) Fairly pleased by today. Rested and relaxed I will try to start more sensibly at Lochaber. My
