We ought to have a 'favourite pic' competition- here are mine:

Sheet 5, image 267- fella thinking if he drinks the stream it'll be easier to cross

Sheet 7, images 387-8, the woman's face is a picture and her vest number reads NO!

Sheet 6, image 357, talk about being prepared, this guy has goggles and a swim cap

Big thanks to Brian for fantastic photos

Suicide six has gotta be the best fun you can have with your clothes on (including the wet t-shirt). Every time I do it I go away thinking next year I'll get some decent shoes that grip, I never learn!

I guess it lived-up to being six-ish today, it meant a PB for me, which was surely undeserved. Wonder what the official line will be on distance, not that it really matters, we all enjoyed ourselves, eh?!

Page 19 of the fellas 'lost and found' has a guy doing some impressive star-jumps on the mountain-side

Is there a specific link for 'fallen over', or do you just have to trawl thru the whole lot?

Very wet camera lens- methinks they should give the pics to us for free

BritNick is right about the natural shower all the way round (Power Shower!!)- it's the first time I've had to stop and wring out my socks! Felt like I had buckets on the end of me legs (maybe Gortex shoes weren't such a good idea afterall- didn't let water out??).

I too made it to Sunday before getting a bath, and maintain that I smelled fresh as a daisy... just don't ask the missus!

Miraculously in all that water, no blisters- I'd rolled some anti-chaffing stuff used in triathlon to stop wetsuit-neck oto my feet [not to mention other places!]: worked a treat

Message to Blox Head- I'm a BRAT (www.bratclub.co.uk runs on Mon and Sat from Cannon Hill Park and Wed from Bham Uni Guild building/track), about 70 BRATs did the Bham half day after Marathon Yryri

Anyone looked at the S4C coverage?- all yn Cymraeg, orth gwrs- no subtitles, but just look at that horizontal rain and trees bent double!

And I thought it was only me- Hey, if your fast legs reached the luxurious shower block at least an hour before me, why didn't you get them to open up the blinking doors!

But seriously, the whole damn thing would have collapsed if the door was opened! I thought I must have gone to the wrong Llanberis football ground changing rooms.

Anyone know what went awry re showers? Was a small blot on a great event. Had to get naked in the car park, bachgyn drwg!
