    I would put the start/finsh of Pikes map in the South-East corner where all the respectable folk live
    If our house was a couple of hundred yards to the west we'd be in Tod, but I suppose we're just not that lucky

    I suppose you've got a point. Most people around here have got a look of Gollum.

    recced leg 4 today,was very firm underfoot due to ground being frozen,lets hope it's like that on the day,because it has the potential to be a mudbath

    Recce-ing leg 6 tomorrow a.m; should be nice and frosty at 8 in the morning.

    Not hugely looking forward to it actually; looking at the map i reckon there's as much tarmac and trail as there is fell. I'm going to wear my half-worn mudroc290s and see how they do but i may look at using trail shoes instead, as long as it stays frosty on the day.

    Tend to think the whole thing (with the possible exception of Leg 4 and a bit of Leg 2) is really a trail race.
    Recced leg 5 today. Deep, deep, mud in places. Very slippy ice covered stone sets in others. Lots of stiles.
    Spent 30 mins in the company of some passing motorists, looking for a injured dog that had limped off at a pace after being run over in Holmfield. Hope it's ok.
    RSPCA and Police informed.

    Re: Calderdale Way Relay 08

    Getting tricky now.

    a) I think is leg 6 after the canal near Brighouse

    b) is sneaky because it shows leg 3 before Blackshaw Head but the race takes the road, not the official CW as indicated by green diamonds

    e) is leg 4 after Blackshaw Head before crossing Colden Water

    f) must be leg 5 somewhere

    I have run legs 1 and 2 so I should know which is which between c) & d) but I'm not sure. Think d) is leg 2 after the stables which makes c) leg 1 but I can't work out where.
