My shortcuts normally add on about 15%:o

A quick update...



The last few invites have been sent out over this week (some just now) and the race is now full. There are still 133 people on the waiting list so substitutions are your best bet.

or the few places that are on ebay (with all the money going to Edale MRT) there's one on there now...


I will still make allowances for exceptional athletes, (including the current record holder who is welcome to run if he wants to), but otherwise that's it.


and just to be clear - there are no entries on the day. Not any, for anyone, ever.

Ian, is there volunteering on the day though?
I can't commit cos of unkown work schedule but I would like to think I could spectate the start and middle and then do summut to give back by volunteering at the finish even if just clearing up.

Race Maps have now updated the map to show the alterations and moved checkpoint on the 2013 route. They are in stock at Lakes Runner: Here..........!

good luck to everyone that got in. just typical that I was working away and the hotel would not boot their broadband router until 11pm that night and by that time it was full. bid £20 on ebay and was away again when the auction ended and was pipped again. sent a couple of emails as well so I have tried my best. I am going to run the rest of the championship races as its the first time I feel i am getting anywhere near some level of fitness. going tea total since 1st Jan has helped.
anyway hope everyone has a good run and i will go on Kent Valley Road Club's memorial ride instead and enjoy the tea and cakes at the head of Kentmere valley
