Winter Hill Race 2012

My race was so short that it doesn't warrant a write-up, other than to blame my late start on the delay in picking up numbers from what seemed to be a very inexperienced registration team.

Suffice to say "well done" to all completers on what were the worst underfoot conditions I've ever experienced on Winter Hill - things can only get better. A shame for EYJ, now that Paul M has turned 70, at least it was good whilst it lasted. That's the trouble, there's always up and coming youngsters entering the fray.

Any report from KLM or Matt would be welcome. Special mention for FSS who had completed the Amble on Saturday; two days in succession on that stuff warrants a medal (or a straitjacket).

Ritzy's guy Colin took this one, but I'm not sure why the bloke on the left is in it, as he didn't have much involvement in anything. Well done to Ritzy and Neil, the former returning to the fells after a long lay-off, and the latter in, I believe, his first ever fell race - what a one to start with!
