I'm 42 and reasonably fit to start with, but mainly from extensive cycling (up hills as much as possible). I started running again in October with a possible BGR in mind. Family commitments mean I do most of my training solo. I could do a few weekend days, but weekdays also possible as work is reasonably flexible.
I live in Chester, so most of my hill running training is going to be in North Wales for ease of access. I intend to keep the cycling up as I think it helps the legs recover from running and provides additional training with no injury risk.
I am reasonably familiar with the Lakes having done a lot of walking there over the years, but don't have intimate knowledge of the BG route on the ground.
Any info on where else to ask very much appreciated.
