How's everyone getting on? I'm building on the fitness at the moment at around 5k a week. Probably up this to 7k in December
I will be looking to recce/ support over the next twelve months to build as much experience as possible, With a view to an attempt in the future!
I don't post on here much, but do lurk occasionally! I'm working towards a potential 2015 attempt, and more than happy to support others where possible.
I am 50 next year and giving serious consideration to doing it on my birthday (May 28th) - what a great birthday treat
I am 3 months older than you (early March). I have wanted to do this for about 5 years now, but decided that when I am 50 and have a couple of the kids out of primary school it will give me a bit more flexibility with the training.
I know I will not get to the lakes very often and being able to see Kinder from the back of the house I am targeting the Kinder Dozen as my main training ground. Had a good bash at it yesterday.

Bit of a writeup on it below.
Relatively- but I get up to the Peaks most weeks for a long day out and Lakes when I can.
Lots of miles and climbing in legs eg Lakeland 100, Lakes 10 Peaks Xtreme etc
