    But of course any runner who knows his way around wouldn't be going through the woolpacks, would he??
    I had a jog around the course on Tuesday, and I certainly didn't go through the Woolpacks.

    A clubmate says he's going to stand at Pym Chair & offer to show people the way for £2 - I think I'll mug him when I get there!

    That's a leetle bit naughty Mr B - you know as well as I do that when the munchkins flagged the route to the right of the Pagoda, the Pym Chair route stopped being the quickest.

    It should be worth it by the time you get there!

    I ran the 'route' the other day and there's virtualy a trod/path the whole way through/round/over/under (Delete as Ness) the area.

    The place to keep your eye on the map if the clag is down is Brown Knoll.

    Any one decided on the Down and Up yet from GK to RR ,I'm going round

    I'm a round man as well IanDP. See you Sunday.

    The DarkPeak website is reminding everyone that waterproofs in the kit check will mean waterproof ie no Pertex and tracksters.

    Hope everyone is prepared for a soaking...

    Opted not to do this, going to do a Welsh Championship Counter down in the Brecons instead, only a short 3 miler or so, but reckon doing Edale with a cold will wipe me out for next weekend in Ireland.
