    Re: That's Lyth

    Blimey, I was getting worried there, seeing that it was filling up and despite my having sent off my entry form a few weeks ago I hadn't had a reply.

    Then I realised that the posts were from last year!

    But I hear there's cake at every checkpoint. I think it'll be worth the risk !

    Wahay Harry!

    I've just sent off an entry today.

    I didn't have you down as a long-distance chap?

    Was winning BOFRA races just getting too easy?

    See you end of Jan, if not before (Wansfell - Dec 27?)
    Why walk when you can run.

    That's rich, coming from the guy that needs two goes to win a race! Good result by the way. I always fancy doing something different each year so I thought I'd give it a go.

    I'll be at Wansfell too, the pressure's on for 3/3. .

    Re: That's Lyth

    We did the last 2/3 of the route from Crossthwaite today. The ground was frozen and road shoes would have been ok even over Whitbarrow. I actually found the written instructions useful along with the map in a couple of spots and I'm glad I did a bit of a recce. It's a surprisingly nice route apart from the Lyth road section. I'm looking forward to the day.
