Before you finish first; first you have to finishOriginally Posted by fellgazelle
You'll raise a few eyebrows if you do.
Longest race I've done to date. I'll make the cut off but there won't be much spare time

Good luck Nightingale,
I'm hoping to improve on my position from last year.
But it's not looking too promising after I was nearly last at Wasdale.
I have managed to bruise the ball of my left foot. I know this is not dramatic or anything but with Borrowdale looming on Saturday, I would really appreciate any tips to mitigate the pain and keep my PB hopes alive. i have inserted some comfort insoles into my X-Talons and these seeme dto work ok at Cracken Edge last night, but it was still painful and I slowed up a bit. Help!!
Get pruffen'd up to the eyeballs i would say. Take some an hour before the start and some more at Sty HEad. Good luck!
just out of interest is the mad scree run off Scarfell pike hard to find ? do most people go that way ?
About 20degrees from the summit did it for us, in the mist reccying last Sunday. The top of the gully's pretty broad - and from memory starts to drop into the scree shoot proper about 100m or so off the summit. Forecast looks pretty "testing" for saturday eh!! Hope it improves.
Had a great race just managed to get under 4 hours by 25 seconds result ! Back at youth hostal for power nap and then off for BEER !!!!!
my mate was feeling good till he fell over on scarfell pike,his little finger is all bent out of shape.A trip to hospital to get it bent back sadly.Well done everyone.
