Baldy Dave Sep 2010 3:23pm, 15 Sep 2010 691 posts	0 Baldy Dave I really never thought it would be so tough. The boggy section after the split at 7 miles really took it out of me. Phoned my missus straight after the race and told her to shoot me if she saw me entering it again next year but now after a few days recovery I am cosidering it again!
Chromey Sep 2010 3:42pm, 15 Sep 2010 10,973 posts	0 Chromey I'm very torn for next year. Do I come back and knock more time from the half (knocked sixteen mins off last years time) or do I do the full like I had always planned?

richmcleod Sep 2010 3:53pm, 15 Sep 2010 529 posts	0 richmcleod I'm quite pleased with me time, bit like Chromey do I try to improve next year or dive into the full?
mawngyguy Sep 2010 4:31pm, 15 Sep 2010 458 posts	0 mawngyguy looks on in awe @richmcleod - I'm sorry to say I was looking for your result too far down the list and took a while to find you 'up there'. Really well done. My sneaky plan to lock onto Chromey looks well daft now! After looking at the results, I realise I had left garmin on auto-pause, which is handy during club training when there can be a bit of standing around, but useless for an actual event when checkpoint stoppage and going off course counts! So worse than I realised on Sunday, bugger it! Can't quite believe i spent 9 min out there doing bugger all. I'll be back ... for another go at the Half.
