Dark Peak Derwent Devil

[MickTor]

After completing the Dozen and the Killer in the last month I fancy a go at this.

IDP how about this record then? I'll need to know the best lines of course!

I think a more leisurely pace would suit to get a grasp of the route, before any record attempts!!

Is anyone planning this? I'm going to organise something.

I was thinking of a trip round some of it soon. I've spent so much time on kinder recently.

You'll need to go soon though as the bracken is starting to come through and this slows the first climb down.

Possibly this Sunday or the Sunday after going to do this.
Word is it's more of a challenge than it looks!

There seems to be a bit of interest in this. I've done 2 runs on it recently with runners wanting to give it a go and I've had a couple of messages asking about route options.

I forgot how hard this run is but I've enjoyed the sessions. Will be doing second half soon and then maybe link them together.

Thanks ian
i've written up a bit about my experience with it and will post it here when its finished.
its certainly a long day out although i preferred it to the Kinder Killer and Kinder Dozen. Not sure i took the best lines in places with plenty of heather bashing for me but i guess that's half the fun!

So finally got round to writing up about the day. I've also included my days out on the Kinder Dozen and Killer

Nice write up, Matt. Looks like we've both done a few miles since we met in the last mile of the Hardmoors 30 on New Year's Day. See you in Conway on Sunday!

[mharmon]

We certainly have, see you tomorrow!
