    Thanks Swoop for correcting the mistake.

    There are too many people claiming to be slow runners and telling the rest of us pork pies

    Would I lie to you?

    On reflection, perhaps you're right. I was just "factoring in contingency" in case it's too hot....or I'm having a bad day....

    BTW Stagger
    I approached someone at a recent race 'cos they looked a lot like you do in your avatar. Only it wasn't you. Strangely enough, when I asked said person if he was "stagger" from the forum he replied "might be, depends".... How odd.

    It's only 15 miles Andy and it will give you no idea at all what Borrowdale will be like.

    I'm afraid this is nothing like Borrowdale! But it is a pleasant trip around the 'Hayfield Skyline'.

    I shan't be doing this next week as I'm doing Ennerdale on the Saturday, but I'll probably be up near Kinder Low watching with Emma. I might even take some water up with me if it's hot!

    I had a nice gentle jog around the route earlier today (about 2 1/2 hours) and it was pretty dry everywhere, but there was still some good drinkable water at the River Sett checkpoint.

    Hope you all have a good run.
