Hi all, I'm a trail runner from overseas (US) and hoping to make an attempt at the Bob Graham Round this summer. I've spent time recce-ing the legs over the past two summers, and I want to see if I can put it all together this year and complete it in full! Two questions for the forum here:
(1) I'll be coming to Keswick for three weeks in June, and spending the first two weeks supporting any other runners with their own attempts that may be looking for pacers. So if you or anyone in your network was looking for help with an attempt on Mon-Sat Jun 2-7 or Mon-Sat Jun 9-14, contact me; I'd love to contribute.
(2) I'm tentatively planning my own attempt for Saturday, June 21 (with Thu Jun 19 and Fri Jun 20 as back-up days if Saturday is terrible weather). Starting at midnight, clockwise, 23-hour pace. If you or anyone in your network is interested and available to support, let me know. I know it's a big ask, especially coming from someone who neither lives in the Lake District and not even the UK, and I'm grateful to you for even considering.
Thanks all!
Jason
