    The BBC weather forecast for Saturday for the Pendle neck of the woods is heavy rain, a medium sized 17 mile per hour wind from the west and a maximum temperature of 11 degrees................

    So on the top expect horizontal driving rain and a minus 10 windchill

    That's nothing unusual for Pendle, just pack your waterproofs and you'll be reet

    Ady....when was it when we were there and it snowed on your shorts?!

    Yep can get mighty cold up there but from previous experience there are a helpful couple of chaps at the trig point only too willing to help you on with your waterproof trousers!

    Re: Full Tour of Pendle

    Hi,

    I'm trying to work out how tight the cut-off is and whether I'd be way out of my depth with this. I'd fully anticipate being right at the back but not sure whether the gap between me and the next person would be embarrassingly large. Cut-off is 2 hours after start at CP4, by my reckoning that's about 14k/8.5m and 800m/2600ft, does that sound right?

    Only distance/height I've checked that I run (I do run longer distances but haven't checked the height gain) is 5.5m/900ft in just under an hour.

    Brutal honesty appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.
