    Thanks for this Martyn, we're fine for road support (long suffering spouses dragooned into action....)

    Any news on this!? It was chucking it down at our place last night, so it may have been horrendous in the lakes!?

    lovely morning here and we missed the bad weather yesterday, so all who braved the initial bad forecast will be well rewarded.

    I hear through the grapevine that Tom Hollins got round in 22.28(ish), sadly I wasn't there to seem him finish, got this news very early this morning. Tom had an 0230 start and I've been told it was a sprint finish up the High Street to finish before 0100. Tom is a strong lad and an excellent runner, this is a well-deserved success.

    WELL DONE TOM!

    Thats great news! Tho' I don't know the guy. Its nice to see more success's! Could tip over the 2000 completers this year! Interestingly thats more than are recorded as West Highland Way Race completers ( I only know as my mate completed this year). Though I appreciate many, many more complete WHW at a stroll!
