    Re: half pendle

    Hiya-I'd be up for this-I joined ukhursty and SS at weekend to do various "lines" but to be honest it was so grim I still haven't got a clue as to the route of the Full Tour-(which I've entered and am worried now as I don't want to get lost!!) Either the 1st or 2nd bit would be good for me-or would you consider doing it all? I really just want to know the route beforehand and have a good trot out-and I'm not fast! Endurance not speed!

    I will come over and have a trot round Darth. Got a knee problem so I will be steady down hill....and up hill .....and probably along the flat as well

    Don't mind if it is first half, second or full I am just coming along for the mug of tea at the end anyway - it makes it taste better

    well, full tour if all are up for it, dont worry about knowing where ya goin, just follow all of those in front, good incentive for running fast to keep up with em
    You can get the harvey race map from Pete Bland's website which is a good bit of kit!
    Ok, stands at present as full tour (unless others say otherwise) at 9.30am Car park.

    excelente! Look forward to Full Tour on Saturday 9.30. I thought about Pete Bland's map but even though I can map read, when I'm running everything merges into 1:confused and it would add 6 hours onto my time! I must have map dyslexia or I am just too excited/panicky on race day to think clearly! Looking forward to it!

    Re: half pendle

    Thanks for the run out. You both looked comfortable at the end so I am sure you will no problems with the race. I'm glad I am not doing it

    The Bradford 3 peaks is the 6th Dec which clashes with the Bowland race but I will probably do it again next year sometime.

    Good luck for the 21st ... you never know it might dry out by then .
