I tip Lloydio to win following his recent efforts at long races - Edale and Manx Marathon.
I have it on good authority that Lloyd intends to take the down and up route between all the hills:pQuote:

Does anyone know of a legit cyclable(ish) way up Ingleborough from horton side. I know the bridleway that goes up from Ingleton, but don't know If my little legs can pedal fast enough to get round and up from there before the runners after I've been to Pen Y Ghent.
Hotdog,
I dont know of any cycle routes but im planning on having a run up inglebrough and watching, Ill look out for you. Will you have your cow bell, it has inspired me at both the langdale and at the waltz to date.
Thanks NotOnUrHelly, I think I'm going to have to find a beer that reaches parts......If I'm going to get round to Ingleborough in time. Does anyone know the real ale equivalent of Heineken? Arran Ale usually does the trick, but it's in short supply round here.Quote:

Looks like its going to be a warm weekend...
the nerves are starting :eek::eek:
metcheck says about 20 degrees for sunday in skipton. I don't think thats too bad to be honest when you are up to 1000 ft or so it will be a bit cooler. Its no where near the 27C I ran my marathon in cyprus. Roll on Sunday. (not looking forward to monday though cycling to work may be fun)
Hi Gromit, are you still out there?
Will you and that young Wallace be at the 3 Peaks this year?
Woof!
I am now officially nervous :eek: :eek:
I too am officially nervous.
So am I and I'm not doing it!Quote:

you can decide on the day on borrowdale and there is over 3 months between now and then! the three peaks is less than 72 hours away!!! :eek: where was wobblehead at anniversary waltz by the way?Quote:

Was already to go, then got man flu. Bad ear ache that I had had for a week wouldn't go away, sore throat as well so felt a bit groggy on Saturday morning. (Plus an unexpected 10 pints of Deuchers IPA on Friday night took its revenge as well!!)Quote:

We've 4 vets and 3 young uns running so it's the best three vets plus the young bucks for the Tattenhall team prize. Current form suggests a close run thing!
Really can't wait - it's a cracking race.
