    Fantastic. Now all I need is a bumbag big enough to fit my laptop in. Has anyone checked the WiFi coverage on Gable?

    Yes its nice and strong, you will be fine! Don't bother with the map either. Your lappy will suffice.

    My compass is knackered. It doesn't matter which way I walk, the needle always points in the same direction.......it sometimes even points behind to where I've just come from!

    Have just realised there is a flaw in my plan - the battery only lasts 3hrs, I'm not sure I am up to beating Billy's record by half an hour .

    Its all gone a bit quiet about this, but with less than 2 weeks to go I am getting excited already. Nagged another couple of Westies to enter to so I wont be the only Big'W'. Who else is going, I don't recognise many names from the forum on the list so I can't tell, but no Baggins, Huw or Moo (the latter maybe still suffering post Ennerdale?).

    This and TheBen are my aims for this year so its onwards and upwards.

    Is it meant to be this hard?

    I'm going to be there. I entered last week so that if I felt OK after the BG I had something to go for. Well I managed a steady five miles yesterday and another six or so today and I'm definitely up for it. I don't imagine I will be very quick, but I might recognise some of the scenery.

    I'll look forward to seeing you there Tross.

    I recognise GeoffB and PurplePlodder on the entry list.

    I am there as well.

    Looking forward to it despite not having ran for over a week now. I have an excuse of holiday and too drunk but suppose I should get back on it.
