    Patience, Grasshopper. (Is your post a wind up? )

    It's traditional for the organiser to get all the runners in, hand out the prizes, finish the stew, then tidy up and go down the pub for a two day bender. Then, as they're all volunteers, off they go to work. End of the week suits me fine.

    Anyone want to fire up the outrage bus?

    And in this modern age of computer technology it shouldn't be much harder to identify the impatient sods and omit them from the results then they won't know how they did. :sneaky:

    Hard to compare, probably PPP, its much more running with only a few steep walks.

    It's much longer as well. Saying that I had a mare on the PPP so hated it.

    Probably suit me more. I've been doing marathons so am more used to running none stop than crawling up vertical hills.

    Can't imaging anything could be harder than climb 6 at Pendle.

    Climb 42 on the BG ?????

    If you are a runner then the PPP is easier I'd say, If you are a climber then the TOP. that said they are both hard

    Will,

    Careful at the 3Ps. I'm a marathon runner (and cross country, too) by upbringing. 3P is about 6 miles longer than Pendle but there are only 2 very steep ascents on Whernside and Ingleborough, both are draining. The danger I found was in the temptation to over-do the easy running section after PyG to Ribblehead, then get tired on Whernside and get exhausted on Inglebugger.

    I ran Pendle more sensibly in 3:36 than I ran 3Ps which took me a disappointing 4:45. It's worth your while looking at the Pendle results and comparing names across to the 3Ps.

    I'll take your word on climb 42 as I doubt I'll ever experience it !

    More of a runner than a climber at the moment although that'll change to some extent over the winter. Hopefully.
