Feedback from Parwich Panoramic Five
Posted in Parwich Panoramic 5, Sport on Friday August 7, 2009| 1 Comment »
The organisers of the Parwich Panoramic Five have been overwhelmed by the positive feedback received from runners of Tuesday evening’s race. The awful weather didn’t seem to dampen people’s enthusiasm on the night, and following much positive comment for the course and marshals afterwards, we have received some very kind emails, which are printed below. We are still trying to determine which “lovely lady” registered Jonathon!
Many thanks Parwich. A tremendous course, perfectly marshalled and signed. Really appreciate the effort that went into it. Regular fixture then?

A superb race, and extremely well organized. The route was full of interest, although the finish line kept moving, it seemed!
I hope you raised a good amount of money for the hall.
See you next year!

How to run a junior fell race
Posted in 2009, Parwich Panoramic 5, Posts of Note, Sport on Wednesday August 5, 2009| 1 Comment »
Last night there were three junior races (under 8s, under 10s and under 12s). Despite the conditions, all the competitors worked really hard, and they kept running all the way round a very steep and slippery course (I know I fell over).
Here are some photos selected from all three children’s races to illustrate how a race should be run. (more…)

As previous posts and comments indicate last night’s Parwich Panoramic Five fell race went very well despite the weather. The fastest time over the 5.3 mile mile muddy course was a very creditable 36 minutes 12 seconds.
Off they go

Fell runners are a tough breed. Whilst most people would have taken one look at the drizzly weather and settled in for a night of reality TV, 63 intrepid individuals decided to take on the challenge of the very first Panoramic Five Fell Race. This race provided 5.3 miles of mud, stiles and inclines – most of which seemed to be going uphill!
Talking to a number of the competitors in the pub after the race, the event was favourably received. The organisation and marshalling of the event were particularly praised….so thanks Paul, Graham, Don and others who masterminded and organised the event. Thank you also to the marshalls and the Parwich First Responders for your time and trouble.
