Title: Yet another new member!
Post by: Rikster on February 08, 2012
Ok, so I have finally registered with the site after keeping a watchful eye on it for a while.
My interests are varied and diverse, but (except for squash), generally involve the outdoors and mountains. From a bit of mountain running (did my first fell race last year), hiking, mountain biking (which consumes most of my mountain time) and skiing, though obviously not on this island! Have done the Mourne Mountain Marathon this past 2 years, which is a great event, and also enjoy the CCAR adventure races, as well as my first ever off road duathlon back in December-oh, and I also coach a bit of rugby!
Live in the Moira area, so not really close enough to the Mournes to be there as often as I would like but I try to get a run up Divis mountain once a week.
Looking forward to keeping up to date wit all that's going on with the forum, though where I am going to find time to fit in anything else is still a mystery  ;D

Cheers guys!
Can't remember exactly where we finished in the MMM, we did the C class and finished in the top half, but just about in the top half! We improved our position well on the Sunday after a navigation mistake had us well out of the top half on the Saturday night-thankfully the weather was a lot better this year than last, which was a nightmare-2010 was my first time and I swore it would be my last!
