What Shoes for Leg 3?

[IanDarkpeak]

Any news of how our contenders went on today?

Hopefully in the pub and done by now??

hi Greg

A full house yesterday, all 7 round comfortably.

Well done to

Willy K Greenflash, All that training really did play off
Dave B (Don't know his Forum name)
Kirsty
Tim and Steve Martin DP's first father/son same day completion I believe. Tim is still doing his 'A' levels I think, they also won the Score class at the LAMM last week!!! and completed the MdeS on a few weeks ago!! When Tim grows up he might be a useful runner!!!!!!
Brent L Penistone FPR and member of WMRT. Brent helps Plumbum and Kinsnail organise the Trunce and was one of the Team that helped organise Tanky's over the last two years.
Paul a guest runner who's help on support last year, From Stockport

Weather was as near to perfect had it could have been. It was one of the best rounds I've helped out on, not least because of the weather. all were pretty evenly matched with all contenders arriving at Honister with in a few minutes of each other. they only really started to space out over the last leg, but by then everyone knew they were going to get in.

Well done to all the support Team, inc Daz the slug, it takes many people to support such a group and as always it falls in to place with every one knowing whats to be done. Richard H was once again the anonymous "organisor" The man deserves a medal

Dropping into Wasdale Joss was there to cheer them through, managed a short chat before heading to the support team only to be accosted by Emmy(thanks for the extra Sqwirms!) and Yiannis. At honister Sarah Rowell popped over to chat. Well done Mark on your round, we seemed to be chasing you all day.

What a perfect day.

Sounds like plenty of people got round this weekend... well done! I was reccying leg 3 today. Beautiful day. Shame I forgot the sun-cream!

Both round comfortably, Not sure of Cantona's exact time but was going very strongly through Honister. Mick managed in around 21hr 50min probably about an hour after Cantona. Well done to both. It was a fantastic evening on the last leg with Mick.

Cantona was 20:10 I think. Both did brilliantly.

some pics here, including some of other runners (e.g. Peter Murphy). Great atmosphere at the end and a cracking weekend!

Excellent shots BJ, the views were spectacular and the contrasts superb. I made our group stop and turn round on the climb up robinson and have a look back over the all the hills behind us.

Well done stanners, welcome to the club

Many Congratulations to all the BG completers this weekend

great report from Ian re the Dark Peak shenanigans and their 100% success rate

In my first ever stint of BG support, I accompanied PaulP on Leg4 (although he hardly need it!) and had what I can only describe as my best day ever in the Lakes (and that's saying something) company-wise, running-wise, weather-wise, everything-wise

[spirit in the sky]

Well done Mick and Craig,proud to have supported such top blokes on leg 3
