What an extraordinary event. Standing ontop of Whernside this morning(which was like the M25, by the way) I got the full extent of the challenge. 360 degrees from the top you could basically see the course. Amazing.

Wow! That's some going!
Hope the runner who was air-lifted off Whernside with a suspected broken leg is ok...
Amazing luck with the weather, tomorrow's forecast is for gales, heavy rain, and snow on the tops. Hope the tail end don't get hit by it...
It is; but the fact that it's nearly an hour slower than his own time last year is an indicator of how much harder the conditions were.
Race has been abandoned!!! Think it's a first. Too many people getting hypothermia.
