...you should be running!!
Lots of potential for injury, lots of mud, and if you do the winter, lots of potential for hypothermia. Don't hold back for the running part at the beginning too much, I did and wished I hadn't so as not to tire myself out for the killing fields. Better to take advantage of your running ability I think. Might be worth getting some upper body strength and flexibility for that bit too. Enjoy.
Very very very expensive. And it's not a fell race!!!!!!! Plenty of better things around.
one of my mates who used to be a fell runner has done it, he enjoyed it. Saw there was a local lad who just did it in the paper.
I'm so naughty!!!!!!
From what I heard from a few others who went on it and they didnt really enjoy it at all, and I was advised to stick to fell running proper. So I'd agree with Mad&Jerry -there's better stuff out there.

Hope this helps
3881 people finished this years event not bad for such an expensive event.
Did the event once. It's good for a laugh, although I ended up with a bout of the sh!*s after contracting cryptosporidium!
