Could anyone tell me what the race route is like, is it on a track or steep fellside? How much is runnerable?
I ran and ran until my Muscles burned and my veins pumped battery acid, ....And then i ran some more.
Hi Hemster,
If you are able to 'read' a map i.e. translate contour lines into 3D, this link might help you.
Going downhill fast - until I fell over
Think of it as an upside down hilly cross country.
All the climbing comes at the start and all the descending atthe end - the mileage is made up on the top of the hill.
I would even say you could run it in spikes
Thnx for that info the route looks like a good contrast to the steep up and down of the anniversary wa route!
Lets hope the weather holds out.
Advice given all sounds good. What age category are you in as that makes a difference. As Scott says its all runnable although WP would have you think that all the uphill is just at the beginning it isnt as its Its basically uphill all the way onto the moor and then depending on age cat its either a wet loop or two or straight back down.
Not sure many ran it in spikes last year!!
