I hope to be there. Not done the race since 2000. Is it still a lap round the reservoir then a bigger lap?
Yes, probably, Andy O'Sullivan will tell us the lap order at the start.
Parking, start and finish are on Cowm Park Way South and its a good 5-10 min to registration at the pub, so leave plenty of time to get to and from registration. There is load of parking space there.
Wajib Ali must be worth a bet for this one.

Im gonna have a crack at this one all being well.
Is it fell/trail or road shoes.
and how hilly is it, I struggle with hills at the minute
Is it 24th Annual (above), or 23rd Annual (website)? It might be important....
I think its the 24th and the 23rd is a typo from last years forms not being updated.
The profile is here, although the start and end point are different so the positioning of the hills will be slightly different. Its not very hilly, about 400ft ascent.
I would recommend trail shoes or flats, definitely not fell shoes as there is a road part and the low ground is quite hard trails. Its slippy on the wet ascent and quite trippy through the quarry so be careful.

Thanks Brummy
Trippy and Slippy eh
I'll be there, I'm also at the Steve Rothwell race the Wednesday after.
Spotted a few forumites tonight - Roger Rabbit (Trying to look cool chatting up a chick on the start line), parky, Pudgy and NotOnUrHelly. Anyone else there?
