    BGR May 3rd 2013

    Well, I wasn't going to do this yet. I had been going to wait until the new year but seeing as others have started it off I'll add my name to the list. As a number of people know already via facebook etc I am intending to do my BGR at 7pm on Friday May 3rd, clockwise on a 23 hour schedule. I already have most navigators in place but will be looking for additional bag carriers etc although it's early days just yet. Will firm up the logistics in the new year. Good luck to the others who have decalred their intentions and I'm sure our trods will pass.

    Looking forward to it already. It will be one heck of a post-Fellsman recovery run

    If I don't get accepted for Print Fest (which is the same weekend) I will be happy to carry bags/food etc on a leg Nigel or make cups of tea at a pit stop. I've had a bit of practise with Stolly now.

    I'm hoping to do the Fellsman the week before your attempt but I'll help out if I can.

    Thanks all. You will all be added to my list and, after the Christmas festivities will get around to writing up a schedule (I have one in draft, with a design stolen from Stolly, I think) and planning in more detail. Recces will start in earnest in December. Oh, and Linda, it's not an 'attempt' it is 'when I complete my round'
