Talking of strategy, I have one myself.
I'm thinking of running up it backwards, which will
a/ give the impression i'm running downhill (I have a simple brain that is easily confused) b/ not have to see the smiling grim reaper looking down at me
Anyone else is of course welcome to join in with this cunning plan

cheers Adair - 'not sure about 1st choice thing' but I'll take it. Re the Lymm 5K - any chance of you running an ultra marathon the day before - thus giving me and other mortals a chance to 'take you down!' Gareth

Thanks to all those intrepid ‘Railway Masochists’ who turned out last night for the alternative club run on the route of the Tattenhall Tough Team race. It gives trainspotters a complete image change!
An excellent social run was enjoyed by all – even those who’d not experienced the vertiginous climb before!
The actual race is on Friday 24th June, 1915 kick-off, teams of 3, same sex or mixed, with the slowest runner counting the time for the entire team (hence running together as a team is a good strategy!).
I’ve had a few enquiries regarding arrangements for teams and what I suggest is either pre-arrange your team in advance or just turn up on the night and make up teams then. It’s mostly on-the-night entry.
An excellent event to look forward to with homemade cakes and liquid refreshment available afterwards!
See you there!

Adair,
Do you want to share lifts? I can drive if you want to come to my house & leave your car (not sure if this works out for you). If Steve R and Jane are going I could get you all in the car.

I can possibly make this now with a bit of a rush. Anyone short of a team member at this late stage?

Not sure - not everybody is on this or checks it but I have Jim's number and I'm guessing you have Jane's so that would be a cracking team. I'll leave mine at 6:15, all in and on the road by 6:30... should be ok?
