finished in 4:54, 10 mins faster than last year but whilst the going was good to firm it was very hot
will be back again next year to knock another 10 mins off

I know, you've gone all camp Ady.Haha quality, stronger lancashire accent though next time
Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever again!
Did 4-55 last year on debut and hoped to chip perhaps 5-10mins this year. Only made Hill Inn cut-off by 8mins after feeling dreadful up Whernside followed by outbreak of severe cramp. Ran reasonably well for me off Ingleborough after walking up. Camaderie at the back was fantastic mind and met some lovely people. Well done merrylegs and Tussockface!
Well done to finish. I think i saw you at the bottom of the climb to Whernside, not looking in love with the game as they say, so great effort to get round.Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever again!

I took the kids up for a bit of a walk from Ribblehead and will try to get my pics on later.
The camera couldn't handle Merrylegs' dayglo vest though, at the finish.
Well done PP. I didn't think you'd make it, but 4.02 is VERY respectable. Looking at the splits I guess setting off slow paid off. Good effort.Haha quality, stronger lancashire accent though next time
