Is there a race route map anywhere (online) or will I need to buy one on day?
ps
does anyone know where's good to camp around there?

Mudlugger. You can get a good idea of the route from the map on this blog: http://chrisupson.blogspot.com/2008/...fell-race.html, but I think the Pete Bland van will be there selling maps on the day.Originally Posted by mudlugger

Cheers bud.
The route on the website is:
CP5 Lingmoor GR 302 046
Follow flags to race finish.
Is it actually 11 miles as above or 13 as in the calendar?
Good point - maybe the blogger's Garmin lost signal a few times or maybe he just got all the lines right! Best to believe the calendar, although with 4,000 ft of height gain, the distance is probably not that important
My route last year was 18km, which is about 11.2 miles

Although I'm sure you could take a longer route if you wanted.
Great blog Chris - hope you didn't mind me sharing it. I bet I will do further than 11.2 miles.
