    Hmm, nowhere near - 1710 to the end of 2011 and just over 100 registrations this year. One or two delayed successes so far. I suspect that with the less than ideal weather of the last few weeks there will have been a few attempts that have been postponed, Tom's was one.

    WELL DONE TOM!
    That's great news. Very nice day Saturday as it turned out :-)

    Do we know how many women?
    Knowledge is power, community is strength and positive attitude is everything!

    The membership list in a word document can be downloaded from this page. It does not give the members gender however but I suppose for the majority of them you can guess if they are M or F

    Heather Dawe was the 100th lady in 2007 and to the end of last year there were approximately 125 ladies who had been successful.

    Hadn't noticed this before, well done Tom. I think Tom is the guy I bumped into on Ilkley moor and ran a lap of the fell race route with the weekend prior to his attempt. Nice to see it was successful
