Support for 13th/ 14th Aug

[Graham Briffett]

I'm in need of a couple more support runners for a BG round on the 13th & 14th August. I'm planning on leaving Keswick at 7pm on Saturday 13th, going clockwise on a 21 hour schedule. I could do with a supprt runner or two for the first couple of legs and probably on the Sunday for the last leg from Honister.

Should be down at Threlkeld for about 10.30pm, Dunmail for about 2.30am and should be aiming to leave Honister at 1.00pm.

Any offers of support much appreciated!

Hi Graham, spoke to Jez this eve, he can probably do 5 for you. Will mail you his details.

That'd be great Jules - Thanks. I still have a couple of potentials from up here, but it'd be great to have Jez there.

Was over in Knoydart at the weekend. If you ever fancy taking a long weekend (bring your family!) up there I'd come and meet up - well worth the visit and great running.

Down to the last couple of weekends of prep now and I'm starting to get the jitters.

Thanks,
Graham

You'd better watch those tree branches over Knockfarrel tomorrow night then!

Making a couple of enquiries with BGers I know, drawing a blank so far, someone else is going out that day as well.

If I wasn't in France doing Embrunman I would be supporting for you! I will ask around the Dallam crew to see if anyone is around.

Thanks All,
I think I have got a support runner lined up now for each leg. Working on a couple of back-ups just in case of injuries / late withdrawls etc.

Tom - just scanned to see if you'd reported anything down in N Wales (been a bit busy and not been paying too much attention to the forums lately) and I see it is firmly in the bag !! Congratulations! That's a really fantastic achievement. I'll have a closer look at your report later today. Good luck with the EmbrunMan next month.

Any chance of passing your "lucky rope" on to Jules for my round in August ?

[tomphillips]

Will hand over the lucky rope to Jules - good luck! When is Ramsay attempt?

Hello Graham,

I will be supporting another attempt that weekend otherwise I would have definitely offered to help. However, some friends of mine will also be in the area the same weekend, I believe they're planning to do a Leg 2 recce on the Saturday. I think they would like to come along on Leg 5 with you on the Sunday, would that work?

Hi TheRev,
Either or both of those would be great, aye. I've got one supporter on each of these legs, but I'm conscious of having no back up, so I'll definintely take you up on your offer. Thanks! I'll send you my mobile number in a mo.

Thanks again,
Graham
