Max71 Jul 2011 10:23pm, 18 Jul 2011 27,051 posts	0 Max71 I was worried this year that I'd not have the same enthusiasm, having run from our checkpoint to points just a few miles over there....I knew those hills existed. Last year I was able to send people on their merry way, with me and them being in total ignorance. This year I needed another tactic. I chose to mention the sill right turn, which I know I would miss. Come to think of it there is not a fucking chance you'd get me running through those bastard woods at night. Next year, I shall return with a new sweater.
