Grasmere Guides race route

[01422star]

Heading up to the Lakes tomorrow for the Guides race. Anyone know the route so I can have a little recce?
cheers

[Deadlegs]

Straight up the hill and then back down again. No fancy route choices. You can incorporate a recce into your warm up.

Which hill?

[Deadlegs]

The one over the road with the flags on that everyone's running up and down.

Fair description I'd say.

Talking myself out of doing this is the right thing to do as i need to rest my knee a bit, but it's a real struggle!

Same here. Really want to do it again as it's one of my favourite races. Will be going with the family to watch as the show is good fun. I am trying to persuade youngest daughter to run. Not a chance.

This is a tremendous race, part of Fell racing's history. I'll be there!

The weather is set fair so should be good

[wycoller]

never been before so first time tomorrow. Going early to hopefully avoid the worst of the traffic.

Good vid here, damn that weather was making a mess of the course! Don't forget, £500 for breaking Fred's record.
