    60 at 60

    While I was marshalling today on Bowfell for the Great Lakes Race I met about 5 different groups doing the Bob Graham.
    I also met a chap ( sorry forgot your name) doing a 60 at 60 who was well on schedule.
    Attached is the photo I took, please let me know how you got on.

    No it's not Roger, I would know him as he's in my club.

    Well done 60 at any age is a top effort. weather was as good as it gets, I was with the DP contingent but stopped to get some food out at the top of Billy's rake so unfortuanately missed out on meeting I8I

    Thank you for your encouragement on Bowfell. I managed to get round in just under 23 hours. A great picture (of Scafell).

    Well done Richard Woodrow, a good achievement at any age, even better at 60 years young ;-)

    Congratulations Richard.

    Does anyone have any idea what time you'd complete the standard BG in if you ran it at the pace you need to do to complete the 60 peaks? It'd obviously be a lot quicker than 24 hrs, but the initial obvious guess of 16:48 (=42/60*24) sounds a bit fast.
