Orton Autumn Fair Fell Race 2011

24th September 2011

This was a 6 mile fell race and really all runnable so didn't suit me at all. The first couple of miles were across waterlogged fields and passed a strategically places cattle feeder. To say it was muddy would be an understatement. My legs felt a bit heavy to start with but after the first (only real) climb I picked up a bit and ran well to the finish.

There was a good turnout from the club as it was a championship counter and also many juniors. Club members picked up a good haul of prizes. Just a pity not all stayed to receive them.

Excellent cakes and tea at the finish.

A cracking race!
