did this yesterday. I used my garmin to measure the route. I made it 39.3 miles so significantly more than the 'official' distance. I took 11 hours 12 mins. I went well over the first half but struggled a bit with very stiff legs after Eskdale (going AC) and going into a strong headwind, so the ascent of Charnley Crag took absolutely ages. Apart from that it was good a day out, if not a classic. Thanks to the Bg support for use of rope at Broad Stand.
