didn't cover myself in glory today. my first DNF!
knee seized up on the Whernside descent. up to then my plan was pretty much on track. a slow painful walk to the Hill Inn resulted in a timed out retirement - not that I was carrying on!
on the plus side I really enjoyed the whole atmosphere of the event. the support was amazing and the organisation very slick. still need to cogitate on whether I like the route...
big respect to the marshal at the top of Whernside. I think I could hear him at Ribblehead and he certainly dragged me up the last section.
consoling myself with some beer.

@BehindYou = I loved the cowbells!
