Hi Nipper. I'm not sure which one to opt for in the Autumn roadwise. Chester and Liverpool are both allegedly pretty quick. I did the Yorkshireman last year too! (having done the Half the previous year) and really fancy another go at it. I went out a bit 'optimistically' last time and got some chronic thigh cramps around miles 19 and 20 which slowed me down quite a bit. (I also confidently ran down a nice valley and crossed a stream that I recognised from a family walk for about 1/4 mile until I realised it wasn't the right way and had to turn round!) I've not done Wharfedale or Lyke Wake yet - but fancy Borrowdale and Langdale again as repeat visits; both really enjoyable. From your earlier post do I take it you're doing the 3Ps one day and Manchester Marathon the next??? Hardcore!!!
