I'm aiming to be there as a Fell Pony. If tomorrow is like the last couple of days, it'll be vest and sunscreen. About time too!

Ooh! Ooh! I love pedantry!Originally Posted by Bob the Dog
So here I'm looking at my map of the route for tomorrow (and feeling slightly scared) and on my 1:25000 it has Guisborough Woods, but, Gisborough Moor! (singular, just the one moor).
This is getting complicated. Should apostrophes be involved here? Should I have my tea and go to bed?
Sorry to be equally pedantic, but isn't 8.52 a bit late for tea? And a bit early for bed?
Good point about the singularity of Gisborough Moor though. I've done the race before and never seen more than one.

Only one Gisborough Moor
But another three moors on route
Frequent but moderate workouts on a consistent basis are the key to success
Had a bit of a struggle and finished about 8 mins slower than last year.
Beautiful weather though, and stunning views, which I had all the more time to admire.
A following wind up Roseberry Topping was an unexpected bonus.
Saw a few forumites, but perhaps not as many of the Usual Suspects as anticipated.

I was some 20 minutes behind where I would have expected to be had I been fully fit.
But after a year in the wilderness training wise through various reasons, I was happy to get around in one piece.
Had I not, I suspect I might have retired and taken up golf

Freckle: We were obviously close at the start; I too was at the back near the man with the dog.
Looking at the photos there were only a dozen or so behind me at the top of the road.
