A trip round the Kinder Killer. really suffered this morning but seem to get stronger as the day went on ran more of it than last time. may be easier with no bracken. It started with clag and finished in clag!

According to Forerunner 24.5 miles? (I thought it was further) 7,000ft+

just over 7 hours a plum route and well worth it for any one with BG aspirations.

Well follow that I can't .... a paltry 10k mostly on tarmac with about 700 feet of climb

Have you got a map of that route you can share Ian as it sounds just a bit interesting !!

Had a drive up to Austwick and then a very pleasent circular clockwise run up Ingleborough. Before the top of Long lane I dropped down into Trow Gill and took that path to the stile instead of taking the moor around the top of the gill. Bit of a mud fest on the lower slopes, not suited to my choice of footwear on the day. Lots of mist/fog so no views to be had, still a little snow left up by the Swine Tail. Again, lot's of mud on the drop off on the main 3p path caused 2 falls and the mud continued pretty much for the rest of my time on this path which made me think again about which footwear will be best for the race. Instead of going down to Sulber Nick, I went right just pass the shooting hut at Nick Pot which turned from thick mud into a firm grassy track all the way down to Crummack, much better route choice. From Crummack it was just a skip through the fields to the East of the road back to Austwick. Pity about the views. 1:40 ish, 10.5 miles ish.
