    BG 30th/31st August

    I'm planning my BG attempt starting Saturday 30th August 6pm. I've road support and fell support sorted for legs 3,4,5 (clockwise attempt) but I'm still short on legs 1 and 2.

    If anyone out there wants to run, knows others who do or if there's any other attempts planning on this day, just let me know.

    Thanks.

    Hi Jon,

    Have you been in touch with Macc Harriers?

    They're pretty experienced in this BG malarky and from what I am told very keen to help... I'm planning on joining in the near future.

    I am sure contacts will be easy via their website.

    I'd be keen to get involved myself, but that is a busy weekend for me and time is tight.

    Good luck.

    Hi Jonathan

    I can help you on Leg 1 or leg 2. Probably not both as i should be resting up that weekend. Myself and Pete Beer are doing our BG the following weekend. If Pete is up in the Lakes that weekend you'll have two BG hopefuls.

    Cheers

    Iain

    I'm up in the Lakes helping the Navigator on his 50 at 50 but if that falls through I should be able to help out on either 1 or 2.

    I'll PM you when I get back from Hols, What Schedule are you thinking of doing.

    I'll not say for definite quite yet, but I reckon I could keep you company for a few hours. (leg 1 mind you, Im not into sleep deprivation on my precious weekends).

    How come you've came as far as 2 weeks from your attempt without utilising the support of the forum til now? Anyway, dun't matter - you're here now and thats the important thing.

    Keep us posted (posted geddit?) via this thread or PM me.
