Coniston Fell Race

[Spelling Bee]

I've been looking at the route and it looks like a bit of a toughie!! That decent through the quarries will be interesting.
Hoping for about 1:30, nothing stunning.

Ouch!

Correct it, show Spelling Bee and copy 100 times.

If you keep to the right, you can miss all the quarries out. Grass all the way.

Pity Choccy Chops hasn't finishing pimping his van though ~ I was looking forward to a cruise round Coniston afterwards

Well on with the conversion Mapper, all exterior done. Just on with the soundproofing & insulation. Hope to be cruising around Horton in Ribblesdale for Pen-y-Ghent

Just have to make do with a pub crawl around Coniston 'til then

[Welsh Harrier]

Hope we can get some good views from the tops tomorrow. OK I know that we should all be running so fast that we've no time to stand and stare but I might just pause for thought at the top somewhere provided the clag decides to keep away!!

What is the exact distance for this race. I have seen various distances from just over 7 to 9 miles? I have never done this one before and, looking at the climb from the start, it looks tough!
