Good luck both!
I'd offer help, if I wasn't so useless as a runner at the moment

Turbotom - sounds like we will have a mass start !
I am going to see how I am going, but will have an eye on the record - things go well I shouldn''t be a long way away.
Ian - currently staying in my campervan. Don't know which pub as yet - haven't planned that far.
Thanks for offers of help and encouragement.
Tom
Shit that was a quote gone wrong. What have i done best get my shoes on and do some last minute training!!!. No seriously i dont know why my quote ended up like that but il erm do it on a infinite schedule.
Trying to plod up hills every day slightly faster than the day before
Good luck to IanF and Lardster. I think it's going to be a HOT ONE!!! lots of water I think.
I'm on my way at 6.00 for an early start.Will report sat PM with an udate.
Ian
It was certainly a hot one but the conditions were/are superb if very hot.
I left Ian F just before Carnedd Cribau on his last leg and he was still going strong. He was an hour up schedule and still nibbleing at the minutes every summitt.
As long as he doesn't keel over with heat stroke he should do it.
Keep going Ian....
No sightings of Lardster in the heat but met a couple reccing the 1000m peaks race.
Superb Ian Finished in 22.15
Well done mate
Well done Ian. Thats cracking

Don't roll with a pig in poo. You get covered in poo and the pig likes it.
Just a quick note for now to thank everyone who helped me this weekend - Helen Elmore, Martyn Goodwin, Nicky Spinks, Rick Houghton, Roy Gibson, Don Jenkins, Bob Berzins, Ian Winterburn, Sam Smith, Debs Smith. I couldn’t have wished for a better bunch of people and I couldn’t have done it with out a lot of support, both on the day and leading up to it!
Anyway, it must be a hard round as for the first time in my whole life I got a blister!
Conditions were perfect, barely a cloud in the sky, but enough breeze to never quite be too hot. Underfoot was firm and barley a slippy rock to be seen. An amazing experience on an an amazing day!
I’ll write some more when I feel like my head is working properly and don’t quite feel the massive urge to sleep…
hope lardster got on well, I meant to go to Capel in the evening to see him in but I was a bit tired ;-)
