Was good fun this morning (know what you mean about the manic bit though RB) start was crazy a lot of new people staring too near the front but it all sorted itself out after the cafe. Some of the "pets at home" lot went off like greyhounds at the time I thought to myself "these guys have really been training" - on the second lap one was being sick at the side and the other 2 "greyhounds" were walking ;-)

On a personal not actually improved a bit on my outing this morning (over other 2009 appearances) without giving it 100% so hopefully I am regaining a bit of speed

The drunks certainly added a bit of colour :-)

It was fun at the top of the hill. Some of the faces were a tad strained on the 2nd lap. With the camera at the white gate everyone was determined to run up the hill, then they stopped as soon as they got past it!

Cheers TBB 19:40 in the end so happy with that! Wanted to stop on that second lap on the back section. Taper time for me now!

How did the 'woolpack' darts team do?

They were really struggling at the cafe on the 2nd lap. Pets at home had them whipped

Steve - bizzarely you woudn't have been out pf place there was a couple of p*ssed people watching the race - not sure where they appeared from I presume they heard about the TV cameras but there can't be many 9am races on a Saturday morning with drunk spectators :-)

It turned out that the drunks were supporters of the darts team.
