    Re: Ben Nevis 2008

    Mind be a bit of a naive question but is there a start sheet online?

    "Does anyone have confirmation as to whether they are in or not, I'm now worried mine is lost as the cheque is not cashed?"

    I wouldn't worry yet. It takes a long time to open 800 envelopes!

    Been looking at this one tonight with Sinatra. I may well complete an entry form for this. Sounds like a challenging race I know its 4,400ft but what does this distance work out at compared to Snowdon? which was 10 mile.

    Is this race full? Can't see anything on the web site to say it is.

    The distance is 9 miles, which equates to an average of 489 ft ascent per mile, or just short of 1000ft per uphill mile.

    Ben Nevis 2009

    Any places left? Or am I too late to start planning?

    I've just entered my 4 month old son for the 2025 race to ensure he gets an entry.

    Fitness can't be stored. It must be earned over and over, indefinitely.

    2025? If I get cracking with the training I might be fit enough to tackle it by then .
