Kentmere Horseshoe

Is there definitely no entries on the day for this? Im sure ive EOD before?
Cheers.

Alot of people have wondered this.
I think most people are sure you'll be able to get in on the day unless every fell running around has heard im running so its filled up.

It might be worth emailing pete bland.

Its a nice route Al. You should be comfortable probably well under 2 hours

I wish tom!

I havent raced over that distance in 5 months and ive lost a hell of alot of my endurance since then.

I plan to take it nice and steady to the first CP and then see how i am from there and many turn it up a notch.
Or like usual that will all go out the window and i'll set off at a stupid pace and suffer haha

Its quick running all the way. Your big runs in langdale will help. Its a long slog although not very steep upto is it high raise/seat

Aye, i think if anything the first climb from the valley floor will be the hardest. Its all runable but steep enough to take a fair amount of energy out of your legs.

The climb after the nan bield pass is a good scramble and then there the slog up to Kentmere Pike.


Looking forward to it though.

I'm planning on taking it easy up to CP1 then taking it even easier to the finish.

Aparently Pete Bland doesn't do e-mail!

I spoke to him on Saturday at Wasdale and he said it wasn't full then, which was handy as I hadn't sent my form off then
