Many thanks to La Fee Verte for most of these pics . . .

Sounds like water torture to me, but several Forumites "enjoyed" (did I get that right guys?) running 7 laps of Draycote Water near Rugby. A mixed bunch, from first-timers to experienced ultra runners, all seem to have enjoyed the event despite some having to drop out through illness or injury on the way round.

Last Minute Liz gives Steady a few last minute pedicure tips

Shades, Steady, UltraHippo, Runnigheva, Broken Toes, Timothy Rainey . . some of the Forum's Draycott Ultra Heroes.

Tim just finished, Shades with a lap (or two?) to go

unfortunately after 21 miles, Steady had to pull out suffering from the consequences of Raynaud's Disease . .  and La Fee Verte had to rush him home . . and so the photo's come to an end.
