    In order to break the existing 24 Hour Fell Record, a contender must either traverse the same peaks as the current Record holder in a faster time, or traverse the same peaks plus at least 1 additional peak. For these purposes, a peak must be over 2000 feet high, be at least 0.25 of a mile away from the nearest other peak on the round and involve at least 250 feet of descent/re-ascent from the nearest other peak. The round must be completed within 24 hours. It must also start and finish in the same place, which does not have to be the Moot Hall.
    Agreed
    As I said, there is no question that Nicky has established a new 24 hour record at 64 peaks.

    Kevin is making the point that a 24 hour fell record can also qualify as an extended BG round only if it visits the Moot Hall.

    In addition to the article on the Dark Peak site, Nicky has now done a report which she has sent to Brian Covell for the BG Club records.

    This differs somewhat from the earlier DP report.

    The report and the schedule are both available at the bottom of the 24 Hour Fell Record page here:

    The only one who can tell you "You can't" is you. And you don't have to listen.
