The going is generally very good, the whole route is runnable (plenty of fast going) and mostly on paths & tracks, with bits of paving too....

I'm sure you will have seen a route map, if not there is one to be found at http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~temples/hc/

See you there
Are Trail shoes a better bet than fell shoes then?
