Thu 8th May 2008Burbage Skyline next Tues
 An absolute classic not too far away nr Hathersage - about a 35 min drive. Always a big field - a great course exclusively off road at 5.75m. See race diary for details. Would like to carshare. Anyone interested or will you all be resting up for the W'boro tarmac abuse? - Scab
 

Going downhill fast. Hope to make Tuesday. There might be a spare number for EYAM if I don'r recover soon!- SoreenEater, 2008-05-09

Need you ask? Fighting some sort of bug at the mo, but love to watch if not running.- SoreenEater, 2008-05-08

Sun 4th May 2008Coniston Fell Race
 Just got back from a fab weekend in Coniston, taking in Coniston fell race. Having completed this last year in just outside 3 hours (I know, how long can it take to run 9 miles?) I was filled with trepidation at the prospect of doing it again! Having reccied the route last week in nearly 4 hours in low cloud and hail and getting lost I didn't hold hold out much hope of breaking 3 hours this year!! Anyway, woke up Sat am to blue skies and off I went. I can't believe how much I enjoyed it - yes enjoyed it! It felt like the 9 miles it was rather than the 19 miles it had felt last week. I returned to base in 2 hours 5 mins, aching but delighted. Would recommend this race, particularly as there is a field available for camping through the bank holiday making it a really sociable event. Maybe we could get a couple of teams together next year? - Housewife
 

I hour off yer P.B.!! Fantastic stuff - surely the headline for next weeks Chron?- Scab, 2008-05-06

Sat 26th Apr 20081st Trog May 1st Polling Day
 Change of plan! I am going to do an orienteering type course around Langsett instead of the Polling Station thing. We need to get on the moors. The start will be at the car park near the Flouch roundabout, not Langsett Barn. Start times from 6:30 - 6:45ish. Make sure you are geared up for the weather. Pint at The Huntsman afterwards. - SoreenEater
 

Many thanks for organising this event. I really enjoyed it. There is obviously a lot of organisation involved and this is much appreciated.- Newcasal, 2008-05-04

Really sorry about the itchy bits. I shouldn't have put that one there. I WANTED to wear a skirt today, BUT I thought I'd better not!- SoreenEater, 2008-05-02

Really enjoyed it, despite control 6 being a bit 'iffy. Wish I'd put longs on as well, I've had to wear a skirt today and my legs look wrecked! Thanks for all your hard work.- muddysox, 2008-05-02

Top class effort there Soreeneater. Agree with scab re long trousers next time. Pain dulled as the Titanic went down. (knew I shouldn't have had ice with it). Next Trog is 5th June which will be a run around a different area, yet to be decided.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-05-02

Great little course Steve, mental note to wear leggings and to bring a compass next time. Good craich in the boozer afterwards. It obviously took a lot of organising so Ta very much and when is the next 1?? Col & I especially enjoyed oberving John, Geoff & Stuart overshooting control 1 on the final run in as we had all been tussling on the way round.- Scab, 2008-05-02

Top Trogging. Really enjoyed it.- KingSnail, 2008-05-02

As long as they are out of site they are out of mind. Can't see it being a problem. Got a bo*****ing from game keeper about 10 years ago for a small orienteering do but think it was mainly because someone had a dog running lose, even though the dog was scared of sheep.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-05-01

I've got some controls to put out and there are a couple which are a BIT away from the rest. Not too far. I'm going to try and get up there as soon as I can escape from school. Alex has offered to start people off for me if I am not back in time for the off. Do you think the controls will be ok until Friday afternoon? Will I get in bother leaving them out? They are out of the way of people and won't cause any damage. Pick up the stragglers! I don't want to have done the course and nobody turn up. Cheers.- , 2008-05-01

What do you want doing Soreeneater. I was going to go to football club for 18:30 prompt to pick up any stragglers but if you have a more pressing job I will be there. Don't get home until 17:00 though.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-05-01

just me then- SoreenEater, 2008-04-30

Any offers of help to put the CONTROLS out? Ability to know where things are on a map. Just one or two I could do with a bit of help. Ditto collecting them in. (Might leave this until Friday afternoon after work)- SoreenEater, 2008-04-30

Will be doing a recce of Orienteering course for Thursday as soon as I can on Tuesday early evening. The event WILL be on. I'll try not to make it too simple or complicated. Hope nobody pinches the controls.- SoreenEater, 2008-04-28

Not for me SS but sorry to hear you are suffering and you get it sorted ready for the mid week summer races. Mind you, even with my woeful PPP performance my diary will still read "stuffed SS ...again!"- Scab, 2008-04-28

Due to me now being officially injured :-(( with various knee/leg ligament issues, which resulted in DNF's at Edale...where the problem started...and the three peaks where the problem finished me off for the foreseeable (hopefully) short term. I have an entry for the Eyam Half should anybody want it, as i wont. will be at the club either tuesday or thursday should anybody want the freeby number- SlipperyStones, 2008-04-28

Wed 16th Apr 2008Trunce 2 - 21st April

Accelerate is a Sheffield based "part" time buseness that sells running gear. Debbie, Stuarts partner, did the Watershed and the pair of them compete on a regular basis so know mhat they are on about. They have been to the Trunce before and were at the Thurlstone Chase last year.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-04-27

Thanks to all the team for organising the Trunce. It is always a good run. Special mention to Frithy for making the signs to deter the fence jumpers.- BigAl, 2008-04-26

What does Accelerate do?- SoreenEater, 2008-04-26

That was a big blue van on the field. Tommy Craig of Locozade Sport, same as at Hartcliffe Hill race.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-04-26

Wasn't that a big blue van/lorry on the field?- SoreenEater, 2008-04-25

Not sure what happened to Stuart Hale of Accelerate. Wasn't room on field anyway. Martin promised results for today, not there yet (16:25).- Mouth Almighty, 2008-04-25

Surely to come last in a race you need to finish it. Oooh soz, said we wouldn't mention that any more.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-04-18

Soreenhater, Slippery Stones is the club member who came last in this year's Skyline!!- Scab, 2008-04-18

Mon 14th Apr 2008New Scab on Mrs Scab
 Back in touch after a few weeks of problems getting on this site. Just wanted to put a note on to sing the praises of my 'er outdoors and fellow club member, Lorraine Gandy, who yesterday completed the gruelling Lakeland Loop Cyclosportive (3500m climbing in 70 miles) in 6hrs 30 mins in the saddle. It involved grinding up Whinlatter/Hardknott/Wrynose in a circular route from Langdale. Not bad given she turns 40 tommorrow...oops promised not to mention that bit!! Just the little matter of the toughest UK bike ride to do next month in the form of the Fred Witton Sportive. The scab by the way formed after she fell off her chariot whilst trying to re-mount after a walking session up Hardknott. As Nick Cable pointed out "she will of course be sat down most of the time, so what can be difficult about it -all you get is a spotty a*se from cycling". - Scab
 
Mon 14th Apr 2008Polling Station Trog -1st May
 Two possible options for this: Starting point will be the Rose and Crown at Hoylandswaine. The ideas is to visit as many local polling stations as possible BUT only to use footpaths wherever possible. EVEN if it means travelling twice as far. The two possibilities are 1: set routes from each station to the other; OR people to do their own routes just as long as they enter into the spirit of things and use footpaths as much as possible. Comments please. Each group to have a digital camera to prove they have visited each station. Picture of runners next to Polling Station sign. Comments (sensible ones) one be appreciated. - SoreenEater
 
Mon 14th Apr 2008Polling Station Trog 1st of May

Fri 21st Mar 2008Jim Bell - Who DOES he run for?
 Jim Bell on our team... BRILLIANT! I thought he ran for Dark Peak. Lad's Leap says Denby Dale! He runs for 3 clubs? - SoreenEater
 

I believe Jim has joined us (PFR)but not sure if resigned from Denby Dale, or even if any thoughts of doing. He, or anyone, can join as many clubs as he wishes but can only race for 1st claim club in the particular discipline registered. as slipperystones says "Who knows but Jim"- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-25

Like some other club members (me included) he runs for Denby Dale on road etc, but runs for dark peak as a second claim ? on the fells. think he may be considering resigning denby dale ? but who, apart from jim knows ?- SlipperyStones, 2008-03-22

Fri 21st Mar 2008Next Championship Race
 Is the next championship race; Herod Farm or Hayfield? - SoreenEater
 

Hiss BOO! (sorry)- SoreenEater, 2008-03-22

It's in the process of being changed to Hayfield, in recognition that a few club members wanted to participate in the S.Yorks Road League and also the club champs (Herod Farm clashed with the first SYRRL). Therefore, we decided to acknowledge this and make it an easier choice. Still waiting to confirm the replacement fell race, so haven't publicised it yet, although the more 'eagle eyed' amongst you may have seen the changes on the champs sheet already. You can take the Herod Farm/Hayfield swap as a done deal, but the other changes are subject to Big Geoff's approval.- muddysox, 2008-03-21

Sat 22nd Mar 2008Monday Run
 If any one fancies a long run on Monday, I'm going from Langsett Irongate CP for a slow 20 miler-ish 8.30am start heading to Skarratt-1894-Barrow-Shooting Hut-Horse stone Lord howard Spring + Taking in aircraft wrecks and tea plants on route. Join us for a bit or all of it. Feel free to bring as many soreen loaves and ginster pies as you can carry! IanDP - DeepcarDreamer
 
Thu 20th Mar 2008Presentation Evening

If anyone has any pics please email to Dave Foster asap to send to Look Local.- BeefGravy, 2008-03-21

A brill night was had by all, pie and peas were grand. yum yum. Specially that extra portion.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-20

Mon 17th Mar 2008What Style (stile) do you use?
 Stile = wait your turn. No climbing over the fence! - SoreenEater
 

Not trying hard enough if you can clearly jump a fence. Honest baddies at Penistone, last evening 2 admitted to climbing fence, their turn to buy beer tonight at the presentation.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-19

At MY age!- SoreenEater, 2008-03-19

What's the position if you actually jump the fence/gate without making contact with it?- KingSnail, 2008-03-19

What's the position if you actually jump the fence/gate without making contact with it?- KingSnail, 2008-03-19

Oh dear, just read the FRA entries. Our name is sinking into the mud. I guess we're easy to spot, so if you do fence hop remember 'our' name is on your back! I didn't notice any of our club doing it, but then I wasn't really looking, too busy queuing. When I first started fell running it was tempting to follow what you think is the fastest route, but I soon realised it's not fair to everyone else in front and they usually passed me again anyway. So what's the point? It's cheating and isn't fair to the landowners. Come on, we're better than that.- muddysox, 2008-03-17

RichK on Fell Runners forum suggesting Penistone runners were as guilty as anyone for climbing fences / not waiting at stiles. We are all concenting adults and have our freedom to do as we wish but, climbing fences will limit future freedom. DO NOT DO IT. What did you save? 30 seconds at best, run a bit faster to get there before others or enjoy the rest and banter talking about the prats that do climb fences.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-17

Fri 14th Mar 2008Lad's Leap Route
 Where does it go? - SoreenEater
 

Feels cold this morning, might go back to bed!- SoreenEater, 2008-03-16

Bu**er, I slipped. Only 4 pints though, but a good night non the less. See you 9:45 at the show ground car park.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-16

Ah, but then their conspiracy has worked. Be strong and resist the temptation. Before you know it you will be on the slippery slope. One pint will inevitably lead to 5 and then bingo-you are front of the queue in the kebab shop. Then you will have to lug all that ale and greasy lamb over 6 miles and 1700ft the following morning.- BigAl, 2008-03-15

Could always nip out for the odd pint!- SoreenEater, 2008-03-15

I'm passing the time waiting for MOTD.It is the only good thing on TV on Saturday. I am sure the breweries sponsor Saturday's tele.- BigAl, 2008-03-15

Get some marking done Big Al it's Saturday!- SoreenEater, 2008-03-15

Better make it 9.45 so we can get a park. See you at the showground.- BigAl, 2008-03-15

I am picking up soreeneater at 10 to 10, I will meet you at the showground at 10.- BigAl, 2008-03-15

If its saves parking spaces I will come with you. What time are you picking soreeneater up? I can be ready whenever and in Penistone centre or show field car park?- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-15

Dark Peak are meeting up at Langsett and then car sharing from there. A good idea? Keeps cars down to a minimum (says he who cadges lifts cos he ain't got a car!)- SoreenEater, 2008-03-15

I am taking Soreeneater tomorrow if you want a lift Mouth Almighty. I will be returning home pretty sharpish after the race. Let me know if you want picking up.- BigAl, 2008-03-15

Be patiemt soreeneater, seems I was answering, to the best of my ability, whilst you were bol****ing me. Not very quick at typing.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-15

Thanks star. I'll let you know if I get stuck. I had thought of running it there and back.- SoreenEater, 2008-03-14

Come on Mouth Almighty - you are on line answer the question!- SoreenEater, 2008-03-14

Never done it, but, Climbs from Crowden west up to Lads Leap and continues on the edge heading towards Tintwistle. Path descends to fence on lower edge and then drops further (somewhere) towards road. Doubles back heading east through some quarries and climbs back up to Lads Leap and then descends to Crowden and finish. Out and back to / from Lads leap is the same but the loop is reversed some times. Not sure which way it goes this year. Do you need a lift there?- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-14

Wed 5th Mar 2008High Peak Marathon
 All the best to the Penistone members who are taking on this challenge at the weekend. Don't look at the weather forecast though. I'll set my alarm for 4am and pop up to see you at Cut Gate. Any food or drink orders? Bacon Butty for example. - SoreenEater
 

Some (68) photos from High Peak Marathon. Nicky is 024, John 026 and Mark a few (10 ish)after.http://www.flickr.com/photos/24668105@N08/?saved=1- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-12

A quick note to say that PFR scratch team #1 aka 3 blind mice and a farmers wife were 1st mixed team back in a time of 10 hours 55 minutes. Thanks to Neil (Bowland FR) and Rob (Mercia FR) who stepped in at the last minute when the Curse of the Watershed fell upon Nick Cable, Martyn Goodwin and Charlie. Nicky and me are sharing the worlds ugliest trophy- will bring it down to club tomorrow so you can see what I mean. Well chuffed especially because I also had a ticket to watch Barnsley spank Chelsea. Saturday was one of those rare days..........- 23hours59minutes, 2008-03-10

Most definitely not in a team, phew!!!! Wil be at the Snake in pull ins at 07:00hrs Saturday morning (tomorrow). If anyone wishes to join me either be there before 07:00 or ring me tonight and cadge a lift. mob 07815 646262- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-07

May need to be up a bit earlier depending on who is in the teams. If I end up running, not looking likely thank goodness, you could have another hour in bed. 2006, (Nicky, Ian, John and me) we were at Cut Gate at 05:30hrs. This year promises to be faster, without me, so you may miss some. Seriously thinking of running from Snake Inn 07:00 hrs Saturday morning, up Fairbrook across to the Downfall and come back on the route towards Snake Summit. Anyone welcome to come with me if it fits in such busy schedules.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-06

Mon 3rd Mar 2008The Ian Roberts Fell Race
 Don't think I can make the club this week. Is anyone else thinking of doing this race? - Newcasal
 

He was under orders to get a move on.- Scab, 2008-03-11

Mr Kilpin obviously had to get home for child care duties. Try better next time Scab you may catch him.- Mouth Almighty, 2008-03-11

... head to the pea and pie stands?- BigAl, 2008-03-10

Thanks Scab- yes I did enjoy the race. Thanks also to Soreeneater who attempted to pull me up the hills. Is it true that Wembley is building an extention to the ground..... a shed so all the Barnsley lads can park their whippets and greyhounds before they- BigAl, 2008-03-10

Forgiven. As promised you will see that I have put our individual results up on Race Reports in my own style. Go also to Holmfirth 'arriers web-site for lots of piccies of gurning Penistone runners.- Scab, 2008-03-10

Sorry about the error!- SoreenEater, 2008-03-10

i think you will find that there were 6 actually Mr Soreen. He is difficult to miss what with his wafer thin appearance but New Dad Kilpin through tired eyes came in before the lot of us. How do Holmfirth do it - a superb marked course over proper fells with great views, loadsa butties/tea/cake at the finish and a T-shirt - all for just £4!!! Well done to Alex who I think enjoyed his 1st fell outing. Keith obviously isn't used to dressing himself in the a.m. as he turned up at the start with club vest on back to front. Not sure the young lady who caught me streaking saw to much Knoxxy? All in all a tip top outing in perfect weather. I'll put results up on t' Race Reports. Beats thrashing around the Derwent Watershed at some god awful hour....- Scab, 2008-03-10

Shaun W walking past an open door to the outside from the shower, have you seen the ginger nuts strikes again!!!- Newcasal, 2008-03-09

A superb course, and good grub at the finish. A must do for me next year.- Newcasal, 2008-03-09

Results are up, very fast
