10/11 May - Additional Pacers

[abd]

Hi all
I'm doing my round on 10th May starting 1900 on a 22hr schedule. I have had some last minute drop outs and I'm left with one support runner for each of legs 1-4 and 2 for L5, and ideally would have some more support.

I'd really appreciate it if some of you lads & lasses could help out.

If you want to get in touch then andy(at)brook-dobson.com

Thanks in advance.

Andy my BGR is approaching too (21 June) and 11 May I was planning to do a double recce of legs 3 and 4. I just need to check a couple of things (domestics essentially!) then will confirm. I will be travelling from Northants after work on the Friday so leg 1 and probably also 2 are out, legs 3 and 4 might fit well tho. On the schedule you're aiming at (and assuming clockwise?!) you should be at Dunmail around 3am - Chris

Hi Chris
Thanks for the interest and I look forward to hearing from you. Legs 3/4 would be fab. I can arrange for the logistics to get you back from Honister to Dunmail.

You're spot on - should be at Dunmail 0300

My full schedule can be seen here.

Hi Andy
as I wrote yesterday, I'll be with you but I don't know at the moment for which leg(s).
see you, d.

Hi Didier
Great, I look forward to hearing from you re which legs suit you.

My next priority is to beef up the support on Leg2 (which will be in the dark), assuming Chris is ok for Leg 3, then Leg 1.

Andy I am fine for legs 3 and 4, will discuss details soon, thanks - Chris

[abd]

Brilliant - thanks

So, I've got offers from Knightrunner to do Legs 3 & 4, leaving me with Leg 2 with only 1 support runner. Given that this will be through the night, I'm really keen to get at least one other support in place; pretty please to all you kindly folk. Ta Andy

Hi Andy

Dave Sargent from Penrith here.
I can probably help out on Leg 1 on Friday night if that's any use. I was down to assist with another but I am pretty sure he has cancelled.
Happy carrying and OK on the navigation for Leg 1. If you are really stuck for Leg 2 I could do that instead, but less confident of the nav. if the clag is down.

phone 01768 863000 or pm me.
Dave

Final shout for anyone who fancies a nice little jog out in support on leg 2 tomorrow night - about 2230 from Threlkeld. It will be lovely and much appreciated.

Thanks to knightrunner, Didier and Dave, I've got plenty of support on all the other legs, and although I've an extra pacer for L2 (making 2 support) its a bit thin on experience.
