    Robinson ascent...
    Looking at some photos on the website, it seem like the most popular route up Robinson is to follow the official footpath that joins the ridge about 600m before the summit.
    I've always found this route a real bind (just can't seem to get my head around it) and I'm thinking of getting up onto the ridge ASAP (from memory ther is a path just after the last gate /stile) then following that to the summit.

    Has anyone got any experience of this? Is it significantly longer (and slower)?

    Entered online last night and it will be my first fell race of the year so hope there is company at the back. Notice that the only other club member on the entry list is the association's esteemed chairman (my excuse for missing the Pike race is that we already on holiday up near Blencathra). First time for the AW but timed out many a time at Borrowdale - think I actually completed it last century
