Welsh 3000s schedules

Established as the record route, yes. As a day out in the mountains though Crib Goch first made much more sense to me. I wasn't particularly bothered about the summit-to-summit time.

I have no problem with that, I only mentioned the traditional route for anyone who might like to compare their time with records.

I wish I was of the ability for my times to be comparable to the records! We will be doing Crib Goch first. I just wanna get round in under 10. Thanks for you help chaps.

I had a bit of an impromptu run around the Welsh 3000s yesterday so thought I'd post my timings here if they're are any use to anyone. 10:31 from start to finish, 8:34 summit-to-summit. My pace was basically walk the uphills, jog the flat (until the last few summits when I realised I still had a fair bit of energy left). Very wet and windy until Glyder Fawr and then it cleared up (still windy though). Started at 7:40am.

Route-wise, I went down the Cwm Glas Bach descent from Snowdon (Clogwyn station) and up the western nose of Pen yr Ole Wen.
