New FRA member interested in doing 3 Peaks.I seem to remember reading on the old forum someone had a good map of the route which differs from the tourist one. Can anyone help?

Brummy John's site has an aerial view which should help you. Don't forget you will need to have done some qualifying races.

Thanks for the info David. I realise you have to have done some qualifying races.

Thanks Pike! The map is excellent & tells me all I need to know.

Well, that was very interesting today.

It's a challenge, but one I enjoyed. Reckon we got round in about 4:20 - 4:30. Whernside is the tough one. And not going too fast up to it. Luckily it didn't rain!

I don't think I'll be doing the race. If I went round a today's pace, maybe, but my competitive instinct will take over, i will go a lot quicker and that will have the same effect as 2005's marathon, i.e. bugger me up for 3 months minimum. Which as I'm running quite well, is not what I want.

Maybe Daleside will let me come and watch with her??

Were you up there today?

I walked up Pen y Gent today with my son in tow, kept doing some 'tracking', followed what looked like some mudclaws up, was that you?

Anybody else planning any recce runs, I will definately be interested, just got an 'unexpected three month holiday'!

[fellhell]

Yeah, PaulH7 had mudclaws on! Well spotted!

Maybe it was longer than 4:30, we did stop to check the map a couple of times?

Race day, were I to enter, I'd hope to break 4 hours, but know that finishing would be the main aim and anything can happen on race day...
