    Wet, windy, rocky, mudslide, wild roller-coaster ride was the llanduvery CRC marathon today, enjoyed it tho, mrs did not, to technical for her did the 25k in 3:40min and as we was just about to go over the the finishline was passed by a lad who was first to finished the 100k :shock:
    stuck a mic under his chin straight away he wasn't even out of breath and not a bead of sweat WTF. but looked like he had showered in melted dairy milk lol.

    awesome.

    Well, I think we missed all of you at Cwmcarn today.... Largely because we were late leaving home and didn't even get there until about 1.30pm :oops:

    Two good laps of the xc trail though (and it didn't rain :shock: 8) ) :D

    Went exploring Castell Coch on the weekend as I've heard there's some very good trails there. Had an OK day but need some help in pinpointing the best trails. See thread below :?
