    Agree Steve, all could start together with each ones support in place for each leg, otherwise it could get messy.

    Talking about things getting MESSY, myself (Karl) ,Moorlander (Dale) and Him off the tele (Mick) haved teamed up to do the three peaks, Snowdon, Scafell Pike and Ben Nevis.
    Now before you all fall asleep it has a difference as we are cycling in between them. Now, yes we are runners but not quick anymore as we have a combined age of 170!!!!!
    So it works out 450 miles ish on the bikes, and we are not cyclists, plus we are going to attempt to do it in 70hours just under 3 days..... WE ARE GOING TO SUFFER I KID YOU NOT. Our chosen charities which will each benefit equally are Patterdale Mountain Rescue, Hartlepool Hospice , Alzheimers society and Dinsdale lodge a local nursing home.
    This mad adventure starts next Thursday afternoon and we have a crack support team helping us out. Any donation large or small will be greatly appreciated by us three crackerjacks. The justgiving page is www.justgiving.com/michael-ludgate1
    Hope to see many of you on the fells soon as soon as the saddle has been removed
    Cheers

    I didn't mean we wouldn't have our own on-hill support, but sharing road support is a possibility, plus the whole thing could be kept Pony-themed

    anyway, not a problem, just a vague random thought really
