I'll be having a crack at the full, last did it in 2010. Hoping I don't feel as rough on the climbs as at Dovedale Dipper yesterday - there's a lot more and they are a lot bigger!

I too am having a go. Recced the second half from Ladybower and back on Monday. Very enjoyable.

sounds like there's going to be a big forum turnout on this one - Excellent!
cyclops - this was my first ultra too! (although you may not want to read my post #171 from 2010!)
fjell_guy - I am giving Bullock a miss this year, doing HP40 instead...

Well that was tougher than I remembered!
Definitely a great route, shame I wasn't in much of a state to enjoy it after the haul up Stanage - a little longer and hillier than I've trained for.
Hope everyone had a good day.
Ah yes, twas a great day out, and there had to be a blog that accompanied it....

My first ever ultra race, and first time running (well run/walking) beyond marathon distance. Cheers to the other runners for the company along the way and to the RO for a great event, marshals were brilliant

A great race as always, but a rubbish run from me. Anyway, I've written a brief account of my run & put it on the Runfurther.com website, along with an updated Runfurther leaderboard.

It's that time again. It looks as though it'll be a warm one as usual. I'll see some of the usual suspects there - splatcher (if he gets back from holiday in time), DazTheSlug, Karen N, anyone else?
seesyall there
last year I was woefully unfit, it was hot, I suffered from the ascent of Back Tor onward and ended up clocking 9:39
this year... I am woefully unfit, it's going to be hot... so I'M DETERMINEDto take it easy early on and at least enjoy it a bit more even if I end up clocking similar time...

Good luck people! Fantastic effort to go out and do this after L100 Nick!! Relax and enjoy it Daz, will we see you at BullockS this year? I just don't get enough weekends to compete as regularly as you guys. Shame really!
