    Change to Langdale date

    Just heard tonight that it's been put forward by a week to the 6th October. This avoids the clash with the FRA relays in Bowland.......and I presume it's a week after the Ian Hodgson's.

    It pays to look at the race updates section of this site every now and then .

    Typical Lakes race. You'll enjoy it. Info on the Ambleside site and you can watch a video of the 2005 race here.

    Hm, I can't find the details on the Ambleside site. There even used to be a very clever online map with a little red ball that traced out the route. I've got the checkpoint details somewhere....

    Daz, this is an absolute classic Lakeland race. It's got a bit of everything - steep climbs, fast descents, bogs, rocks, navigation. You'll love it. And it finishes at the pub, so bring your alcoholic neighbour with you.

    Here's the Amblside link - http://www.amblesideac.org.uk/langdale06.htm

    Pity that, as it now clashes with the Ian Hodgson relay.

    In fact it's the day before the Hodgson, but it does clash with Gt. Whernside - English & British chumps counter.

    No problem there then. You are either up for a placing in the championship or you're not. The point being that its possible to run Gt Whernside Saturday and Ian Hodgson Sunday, but there are very few runners who could run Langdale and then do justice to a major team relay the day after.
    Now't wrong wi me, its t'others.
