Looking like a great result! I was concerned when tracking this morning that they hit big trouble at #4, it could well have been cloudy and hard to pick up the right contour. Their tracking stopped there but the results show a full set of splits 😄

From Mike Crockett:

> I have been watching the OMM website this weekend and was delighted to see that Adam and Robin Fieldhouse came 4th in the Elite class.
> 
> Their time of 13 hrs 27 mins 16 secs over the two days of completion in really tough Lake District conditions is a real test of stamina.
> 
> Congratulations to them on a magnificent achievement.

A great result indeed, hopefully Adam and Robin will publish a report - once recovered! I also remember that you and Bill Vigar made a formidable team with more than one win as veterans the 1980s or 90s?

Yes we won the vets handicap quite a few times,thanks to our generous handicap. We only had two teams older than us at two of the events I looked at. Chris Brasher ( London Marathon and Melbourne Olympic fame) was in one of them. Happy days even though it was “never again” after every finish.
