Marshalling the remote checkpoints is even braver.

Hi everyone. It's time for my annual blatant plug: we've posted a Fellsman report, including an interview with winner Jez Bragg at www.grough.co.uk.
In my defence, can I just add that it was me and two colleagues who walked out from Yarnbury to place those annoying flashing yellow beacons before returning to the checkpoint for a 21-hour stint clipping your tallies.
So I have suffered... just not as much as you.
Well done to everyone who took part.
Hope to see you, or your headtorch beam, next year.
Bob Smith, grough editor
There were plenty of photo's being taken on the day ,most by checkpoint staff who won't be reading this forum , but does anyone have any others apart from the ones on Grough?
Great report from Grough ,well worth reading
Well done mate... sounds bloody tough, in fact even the place names send a shiver down my spine!
There's a little voice telling me, "Go on, go on, go on!!!"... so maybe next year I will...
Good on yer ML.
I have to say its one of the best things I've ever done..... although it may not have felt exactly like it at the time
We were walking, fast though! Pleased to meet you tooI think you two must have been the pair that I passed just before we came into Grassington. Pleased to meet you
Cheers mate, get it done Simon, you'll love itWell done mate... sounds bloody tough, in fact even the place names send a shiver down my spine!

Good on yer ML.
Ive been wondering this for a while.
I know the distance is relatively similar but the climb isnt....but even so.....how much would people say doing the fellsman compares to the BG?
Have a look at this Al
