Yet again I did my Pen y Ghent and Plover Hill (henceforth to be known as pygaph) run today with unbelievable amounts mud and water on the tops. My time was a slow 1:38 but I think that was just down to the stupidly slippery and boggy conditions. I don't think my Walshes have any grip to offer any more either



They've lasted incredibly well though with me wearing them on every off road run so far this year. I want to try and get them to last to Christmas if I can but somehow that seems unlikely .

I would recommend that anyone thinking of doing this route should do it while the goings good (or should I say not good) just to appreciate the brilliant conditions prevailing.
