:confused: It wasn't London at this end and it still isn't. Must be something to do with your own computer settings??

Stolly the URL address in your posting was http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?uk=358 This is the ID for LONDON.

The correct URL address is http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day.shtml?id=1173

I think regardless of the locale, it's pants UK weather for the weekend! :mad:

Mind you, I like it cool...easier running! :cool:

Thanks stringman for the wise words....first time doing the PPP but normay do longer events like the fellsman..I'm going to have to get my race head on me thinks for this as I've done the 'normal 3 peaks route' so many times but at a plodding pace' I'm aiming for 4hrs 3o. I'm the Kippax Harriers runner 505 at the back

it's gonna be a gradely day out !!!

Well then, only 46hours 35min left now.

I haven’t really got a clue how well/badly I will do. I have done a ‘million’ long distance walks but I am new to fell running and the Wadsworth Trog (3.50ish) is the only long distance race I have done.

So the plan is to start the race fully hydrated, drink at each drink station, eat some salt and ‘loads’ of jaffa cakes during the race.

Time wise I am hoping for 40-42 min on top of PYG, 1.50 Ribblehead, 2.30 Whernside, 3 Hour Hill inn, 3.40 Ingleborough and finish in 4.25.

It should be a great day out!!
