Are you male, just been out on leg 3 this evening ( about 7pm above todmorden) recceing, been on your own and asked two women runners where the calderdale way went? They will have seemed very definite about where to go and sent you on your way with some directions. Well if that's you you need to go out and recce it again, my wife has just come back from a run and she's sent you the wrong way. You should have continued downhill.
Sorry about that, I promise to not let her give directions in future.
