Not content with just racing on Friday Tony and Josie competed in the Loughrigg Silver Howe Chase on Sunday. They were joined by fellow Lostocker, Mark. This is another tough race covering 8.7 miles and 2,887ft.
The race started in Ambleside in the Lake District and climbs the tough Longhrigg Fell and then heads to the summit of Silver How. Participants then turn around and head back to Ambleside, faced with another climb to the top of Longhrigg Fell.
Tony was the first across the finish line in 1:53:03, followed by Josie, who despite a nasty fall finished in 2:12:44 and Checklers in 2.42.13.
