has anyone had a look round the routes yet? whats the running like, is it fast grassy terrain ?

Sure is!
A mixture of fast grassy descents, some boggy moorland terrain and limestone trails. Three fast and fun routes.

So who's running this next week.

I'm down for the short and (relatively) easy leg 1.

Will be happy not to come in the final 25% of the field.

I'll be there. Double header that weekend - shooting down to Sheffield after Saturday's race for the Compass Sport Cup Final, disappointed to miss the post-race craic but I'm sure I'll find some in Sheffield.

Who's staying over Friday night in Kettlewell? I'll be there in me little purple tent.

I'm camping, whats the deal do we just turn up and camp or do we need to pre-arrange.

Cheers
Jamie

we will collect the money from you,just enter the field and pitch your tent with consideration for others arriving.
A few of us will be there from thursday setting up.

There is a camp site with limited capacity almost adjacent to the event field in Kettlewell, there will be a charge for using this site (£5 per person per night) which has toilets (2) and showers (2). No caravans or motorhomes. Campervans must be less than 5m long (tight access to field). If you do use this site please keep your pitch as compact as possible.
Please note, as this camp site is close to the event field with competitors using the campsite track, we may have to restrict vehicle access between 10am and 4.30pm on race day.

where's parking for the campsite likely to be? In the race parking area?

[Stagger]

Recced leg 4 this morning with Mrs Stagger and its very wet.
Runners will need all the grip they can get.
Mudclaws were ok but Talons were slipping.

You'll be able to park in the camping field but you must park tight to your tent to ensure there is enough room for everybody. There will be marshals on the camping field to direct you.

cheers Womble - headlamp tent pitching will be much easier than fumbling around with a headtorch!
