VECKANS ROCKRUNNER V34

This weeks Rockrunner of the week is of course Jethro Lennox (related with Jethro Tull and Annie Lennox?) and Andy Symonds (related with Andy McCoy and Gene Simmons, who*, of course, can´t spell his surname?) who won BÄMM (the international spelling of BAMM) 2009. They won with not only a great time and extremely fast pace. They also dit it in a superior style, running quicker than Kenenisa Bekele (even on sharp rocks, glaciers, and extremely steep hills, they did, I saw that) and at the same time they had the camera in a steady grip taking picture after picture. Read the stories and watch the photos:

This is how fast and great Team Rockrunners wants to be. Unfortunately we run slow and lost the camera in the bar so now we have to train for BÄMM 2010 from fjord to fjäll. Some sort of rockrunning report is on it's way but we write as slow as we run. Thanks for the lesson boys!

* Of course I mean how Gene Simmons spell.

Rocker sa...

Hatten av för dom där två killarna. Tycker mig kunna ana att dom hade kunnat springa ännu fortare. Dom verkar ju ha haft lite problem med Björkans kartor...

Båda har meritlistor som är fyllda med topplaceringar på lopp som heter nånting med Hill race eller Fell race. Och Jethro sprang London marathon på 2.23, och är dessutom skotsk mästare i bergslöpning 2006 och 2008. Andy har tydligen varit på träningsläger i Alperna innan Bamm, och har goda chanser att bli skotsk mästare i bergslöpning 2009.
