Peris

Saturday 16/09/06

Peris Horseshoe fell race - 17.5 miles / 8000 feet
54th place - 4hrs 26mins 46secs

British championships decider
Set off with good intentions (read 'too quickly') - see pics ahead of Christine Howard and Colin Donnelly !!!
Cramp set in early on the way to Pen Y pass so it was survival from there onwards
Took me 5 mins longer than Wasdale (21 miles / 9000 feet), which shows how much I struggled
Fortunately Scoffer got round despite feeling ill and Morgan's knee held out, so BFR won the champs, which is lucky as I ran like a nonce
Thanks to Mike the Marrow for convincing me to go
