    Come on, someone help him out. There must be plenty of people who can give their view on the Skiddaw Race, unlike me as I've never run it. For what it's worth Iwould have thought it is less appealing than other Lake District races and If I was going to plan a stay over in the area for a first Lakeland race it would be Buttermere Sailbeck.
