The odd thing is you have to go into a sheep enclosure up a bit then climb a high wall( admittedly with foot steps) to take the route they took, where the right route is hang a left through a gate on a big track. Hard to figure how they got that wrong. Diversion cost them 10 mins at least.Quote:

Yes, Helvellyn I reckon :) Go Stolly :)
Had to come in and check how he's doing before bed... won't be able to check his progress until 2 pm tomorrow, as before that I am stood marshalling somewhere with no signal... :)
this next bit is one of the main reasons I don't like the idea of an anti-clock
ascents of Seat Sandal, Fairfield and Dollywagon in short succession :w00t:
Between watching Mike Hall's spot tracker racing the Great Divide and Stolly's BG, my life is too exciting ;) Must try get some sleep...
Have a great nightn Stolly, run strong and remember: it is only a bit of weather ;)
im feeling a bit queesy just thinking about it :pQuote:

That route makes a good short training run - I do it a couple of times a year. Seat sandal, fairfield, dollywaggon, then a fast run back down willie wife moor.
Is Stolly on the way back down from Seat Sandal to Dunmail?
Or is the man with the felt tip playing up again? Too stressful this.
Let's hope the felt tip (as you say) is playing up. On a positive note No. 10 is about to reach Stybarrow Dodd. No idea if that is on schedule or not but seems to be making good progress.
Just went back to original link and began again. It has them on climb to Fairfield. Still going!
yep. The route line is continuing but the No.8 marker is back down near waterfalls near Dunmail for me. Don't know about you but after a couple of pints of cider I'm tired just looking at this. That said, I am taking part in two attempts at once!
What do we reckon, no.10 and stolly to pass around Nethermost Pike?
Just back from Dunmail. Both Gavin and stolly were climbing well on leg 3. We had a few minor hicups. Had to go down to foxes tarn after some confusion with rope team on BS. Probably best as it was bucketing down.. I can confirm we most certainly went to bow fell sumit. I did struggle with linre below hanging knots at bit but we hit the col ok.
I must admit that whilst having been across section 3 at least 25 times it was my first anticlock. It all looked very different specially in the clag.
Any how they hit dunmail about 15 mins down. Just hope the weather is a bit kinder for the rest of the night.
good luck for the next few hours. I'm going to have to turn in now.
I seem to be stuck at Dollywaggon at 2am. Anybody else got any more?
ditto :confused:Quote:

Yes ive got him there too. After reading moorlanders report sounds like hes going well despite the weather :thumbup:
I can't offer anymore - It seemed to stop at 2am. I've sent another reset text but nothing has happened so far. Sorry about that guys.
Yes... so hoping if he got through leg 3 in all that and only 15 mins down he should be ok. Tracker must be stuck again.
Sorry, James, hadn't seen yours. Let's hope for a report from Threlkeld soon, then.
Or its had a rite good waterproof test.............
Always astonishing to wake up and realise that they're still going. Shame the fascinating tracker has stopped. Must be on Skiddaw now?
I think it's what puts me off.Quote:

Come on Stolly, not far now:thumbup:
Any news!!? I've got him ascending Dollywagon at 02.00! Just hope he's not starting to struggle a bit? 2 hrs from there will leave him 40 minutes or so to play with from Threlkeld?.....I think? Fingers crossed.....
Aye c'mon Brian not far now :thumbup:
Well the tracker looks to have broken. I bet they're all lying on the floor knackered outside the Moot Hall, surely? Fingers Crossed....
15 minutes, come on Stolly, get a shift on.
Then let's hear the tales.
I am actually a little stressed now! He should be heading toward the High Street now! This tracker lark has raised our expectations for immediate clarification!! :rolleyes:
My 7 year old son's cricket team won their first cricket match last week...on the LAST BALL so I am used to this kind of stress...I can handle it. C'mon Hester kick their backsides into Keswick. You can do it!
5 minutes! I'm about to go out for a run. They must be there??
Any confirmation?
My mate's just said we need a webcam at moot hall ! Not such a bad idea? Any news I need to pee!!!!
That's one hell of a rep session that Sharon did between Helvellyn and Fairfield!
There is a webcam: someone posted a link last week for th dark peak ladies relay record- if you can find it.Quote:
