    Good point; but it doesn't say much for the reading and navigational skills of those intending to successfully complete the TWA.
    Next thing, Wynn will be flagging the route from the car park to registration.

    I was going to offer to marshal at this year's event but i'm on a stag do in Budapest. I've divided the course up into 3 training runs to do some time, is the route from CP1-2 via Littledale Edge or as the crow flies down and up to Hindscarth?

    blimey, I think I'd pay good money to see somebody attempt to straight-line Robinson to Hindscarth!

    One of the skills to be learned. A clue - there is a technique called contouring.
    Yeah i know but there must be a known quickest route, i'll assume it's a contour just below the ridge line.

    I think i'm going to go that route anyway, it's better training ultimately and a good opportunity for descent practice. However if i ever do the race i'll just keep my mouth shut and follow you lot
