Borrowdale - Very Late Postscript

YJ and FSS, being the type of chaps who are very keen on statistics regarding races etc, have recently exchanged split times for the Borrowdale Fell Race. YJ's being his PB of eleven years ago and FSS's PB this year. Given that the finishing times were extremely close, and at the time of each race, the contenders were of the same age category, it is not suprising that the split times were also very close, reflecting individual strengths on ascents/ descents. What's worth blogging about that I hear you say - well not much. But the astounding fact is that Simon Booth of Borrowdale Fellrunners was the winner 11 years ago and he's won every Borrowdale race since, including this year. Now that is worth a mention!
