Hoping to do this race this coming year, never been in the dark peaks before and looking for a decent route description and/or map so I can recce it. No map via Pete Bland and none I can fine at Race Maps either, any suggestions gratefully received, cheers, Mark"
Neil has just sent me the updated racemap via email which i'm sure will be available from the usual places once its been printed. i would guess the print runs are kept small as race route can change slightly from year to year. As the skyline has this time round.
as others have said there is all manner of useful info on dpfr.org.uk skyline pages and you'll find the checkpoints in the info which is downloadable with the form. IDP has posted the link above.
I would echo the suggestions of a recce of the second half!
Ian can you clarify this, I've checked the instructions but I can't see any specific route change, is it just a difference on the race map?
the usual restriction are still in force ie the zigzags and Brown Knoll. is there some thing else.
ps you are doing a grand job :thumbup:
Form printed and filled in, placed in a stamped, addressed envelope waiting for the post, target time mentally noted.... now all I have to do is get round to doing some training!! :D
thanks Ian, but its the postie I feel sorry for!
it a minor change, we'll not be cutting down the field after lose hill, instead stay on the path to back tor. Not going in to details why on an open forum but I think its a better route any way as its more technical running.
there may be more significant changes next year, in a good way, but not going in to details about that either. you'll have to wait and see...
Cheers Ian(i feel like I'm chatting to my self) :p
I think I know why, Might be worth getting John to pop a map of this area on the website to show route change and to stop runners recceing the old route running down the field.
I'll be at the meeting next Weds
So how many entries did you get this morning...LOL :)
Racemaps have been sent to the printers, so i'm expecting they will be available from Lakesrunner.com by at latest the end of the month.
I'll post again when they become available.
