cheers Frank! It was a great run although i liken it to iceskatin thro mud backwards with weights strapped to me feet!!!! nearly fell many a time ! but Im happy to report all me ligaments intact! thank god! they had lenghthened the course 2 to make it just over 12 mile, they dont normally tell you the distance!! will check the results and see how it affected the front runners time in comparison to last yr, I finished in2 hr 20 ish! i was so covered in mud i couldnt stop me watch! was 6 mins slower than last yr but longer course and mud but I felt so much stronger on the hills than last yr! and considering i did 20 miler on wed ,im pleased!  hope to come to club 2moz
