    Thanks Lucifa73, you are quite right and I am in the process of getting it looked at.
    Thanks for the 'Mascot Pep Talk :p ' also.

    Also thanks to Redsquirrel for the welcome and the same goes to anybody else I may have been remiss in mentioning.

    Off now to read the previous mentioned thread that since has our names related to it. (I think that makes sense) :D

    Read it now, sounds like a great idea.

    Also agree with what was mentioned earlier about running downhill being harder than going up. Especially lower ratio slopes such as 1:5.

    I personally find it to be a mental thing. For example, running up an hill you are in eyeline of your target. Downhill you are way above in elevation from your intended destination and I think it dictates caution, such as standing at a height overlooking a drop. Sounds silly but there you are.

    Also, I find women are more carefree running downhill and tend to go for it.

    Well, if availability is being asked about, at the moment I have the following (not many) weekends free this year. Of course I understand if you want to do the meet without me!

    w/end 15th Nov
    w/end 22nd Nov
    w/end 6th Dec

    I realise that's not terribly flexible!
