Tim Chadwick and David Poole took the seemingly never ending journey to Wasdale Head to take on this race, which enabled both to tick off the three big ones in a year. At five miles, this is the shortest race, compared to Snowden and The Ben.
A Friday night on the Moretti the night before worked wonders - carb loading done right with Tim knocking around two mins off last year's time and finishing 19th David crossed the line in 6th place.
David was in with a chance for the King of the Mountains, but sadly, it was not to be as the last minute arrival of John Yells all but dashed the hopes of taking home the impressive trophy. However, in the end, it was still an impressive 2nd place in the King of the Mountains challenge for him.
The official results are not out yet, but the approximate finish times are:
6 David Poole 1:01:20
19 Tim Chadwick 1:06:08
A good day out for the Barlick juniors with Jack Villiers, Ciara Duffy and Lucille Pickles all coming away with first places, although in the case of Jack, it was a very close run thing. A good run by Logan McCredie also saw him get a podium finish.

There was no Bradley Show this year and it is a sad sign of the times that people no longer seem prepared to give up their time to put on community events. However, the fell race still went ahead and is perhaps indicative that many are still prepared to put themselves out and organise races and we should be eternally grateful to all race organisers and their helpers for their willingness to still do so. .
Joe Hudson not only won the senior race, but he also set a new course record and is perhaps another sign that this young man is destined to be a force in the sport. Ian Beresford of Barlick was in second place and on any other day, he would have probably been the race winner.

You may remember that Gary Bradley completed this 60 miles / 20,000 ft race in under 20 hours. He has since recovered and has found enough energy to be able to tap his keyboard and recount this challenge. It is a good story, along with photographs from the day and it can be accessed from the link below.
Jon Cleaver and Luke Turner won the pairs race last year and were keen to emulate their success again. But, after 6 miles, Jon twisted his ankle and they fell back a little, However, after another couple of miles, it numbed off and they fought their way back up the field, knocking 5 minutes off their last year's finishing time and easily running out race winners. In the euphoria of their win, they vowed to return next year and try to not only make it a hat trick, but to try and do it in a sub 3:30 time.
Jon is now going to let his ankle recover for a couple of days and then start tapering for the bog one in three weeks time
In the singles race, Craig Storozuk finished in 12th place.
