Rab Mountain Marathon 24/25th Sep 2011

Just returned from North Wales. Absolutely fabulous weekend. Results here

I was on the standard course, unbelievably lying 2nd FV40 'team' overnight, but the 3rd and 4th placed FV40's (also both doing it solo) pulled the stops out on Day 2, leaving me a creditable 4th FV40, one place improvement from last year. The best bit was being 55th (out of 292) overall, last year 133/268.



A few pictures from the overnight campsite



On Day 2 you had a choice of climbing to the top of this hill for your first control


or climbing to the corner of the felled forrest seen in the picture below



Both only worth 10 points, I opted for the later, will have to analyse the split times to see if I made the right decision!
