That is defo an arse showing!
About 115 people in for the National 100 this year so better numbers than the 25. The course is reasonably quick on a good day on the A66 from Keswick to Cockermouth.
I’m guessing everyone that entered got a place though.
Maybe I should do some training
Slim pickings at the National 50 today, it was on our local course and I didn’t do it. Was a windy day but probably a reasonable tailwind back. It’s a quick course usually but I wonder if there was a few DNS’ due to the forecast.
Only 49 male finishers & 22 females.
Male winner did 1:37, fastest lady was an impressive 1:44 which got her 9th overall.
Edit: looks like that is the second fastest ladies 50 ever!
Best courses look to be E2/50, L5012 & this one generally.
Got the start list for the 50 on Saturday, only 39 entries! It’s not a fast course but has low traffic. Guessing people are double booked. Hopefully numbers will return next year.
