That photo of Rose Hooton and I was taken during the last round in 2005 in which we both battled it out over the course and Rose was ahead on the final down hill but I managed to gas past her and take my first win over Rose by 4 seconds how did I do that! Determination I’d say !
Unfortunately Rose is in need of an operation to get her back to form, hope she does soon and we can commence another battle one day but I’ll not be racing the fells for a while yet as I try for a second Island Games. I may well take part in some longer races but only use them as part of my training.
