Thread: Attempt, 31 March

    Attempt, 31 March

    Hi,

    If anyone is interested I am having a second attempt at the BG tomorrow. Leaving Keswick clockwise at 6am. I have a very strong team and a good weather forecast so I have my fingers crossed nothing goes wrong.

    Is it silly to set off at 6am on a 22 hour schedule at this time of year and be condemned to a long night on L4? Perhaps. I will let you know on sunday.

    I will try to post updates on twitter #andyblackettBG @andyblackett

    Really looking forward to seeing you arrive at Wasdale and me and Jim doing leg 4 with you.

    Of course, if you really mean 22hr then make sure you do roughly 3:38, 6:28 and 5:50 for the first three legs.
    Take your time.
    Don't rush.
    It's not a race.
    Enjoy the moment. :thumbup:
