    The Annual Awards missed out on an obvious category in my opinion.

    What single post on Boards AC was your favourite in 2009? It could be a piece of advice, a training run, a race report, whatever.

    If people PM their suggestions to me I’ll collate them Wednesday next week and a poll can be done in due course depending on the feedback etc.

    Folks,

    Thanks to everyone who contributed to this. I was going to post a further poll about the 2009 ‘best individual posting’, but there was a clear winner emerging from what I received by way of inputs so far. Inevitably it was race reports that got most attention. There were some individual funny posts referred to and others which had to be heavily moderated, so I have chosen to shortlist the serious ones below :rolleyes:

    The outright winner of the best post for 2009 was Rusty Cogs 08 for his race report on the Everest Marathon. Technically it spans a no. of posts, but that’s just because of the restriction on no. of words.

    Honourable mentions:
    MCOS’s post about Goal Setting
    here

    The Bulletin Board’s Wicklow Way Relay race report
    here

    Tergat’s advice re: improvement
    here

    TheRoadRunner's london marathon report
    here

    Abhainn’s Dublin Marathon race report
    here

    Krusty's race report on Berlin
    here

    Krusty DCM Pacer Thread

    Hats off in particular to Krusty for the quality and consistency of his postings.

    Cheers,

    Mick

    None of those posts are a patch on Woddle chasing after his ex-girlfriend despite desperately needing a toilet break. ;)

    SJ just sent this on to me so a happy surprise (especially considering the award didn't exist until 10 days ago). But it's nice to know I entertained a few for a bit of a lunch break.

    Cheers all.
