My thoughts exactly... Bloody weatherOriginally Posted by Tindersticks
Looking up from Wasdale, I could imagine what it'd be like up on the tops. Hard luck Daz. Let me know when you plan to have another go.
If Claire gets round, then chapeau indeed...

I see the plot is stuck in the "twilight zone" at Honister!
Yes, I'm watching that too! Got fingers and toes crossed for her and everyone else out on the hills.
Its moved.....
Bad luck Daz - the weather sounds to have been pretty horrible. Hope you're already planning another go. I was thinking of coming up to run a leg with you, but since you didn't need me & the weather sounded rubbish I went to Cader Idris - & the weather was great. Weather has stopped many a BG attempt, lots by runners faster than either you or I. If at first you don't succeed & the reason is nothing to do with your own mental or physical fitness you've got to give it another go haven't you? I was lucky with the weather on my BG, but not with my JNLC the year before. 2nd attempt a few weeks later & it was in the bag though.
For a professional armchair BGer like me then trackers are definitely the way to go for all you BG aspirantsIt is rather addictive watching and hoping that the runner will succeed.
We may never have a good night's sleep again when a BGR is in progress with this device. :w00t:

DT we seen bob this morning we started leg 5 at 8.20 clockwise and he was coming up dalehead how is he getting on ?
Bad luck daz but the weather again when I came of great gable around 7.30 yesterday we just knew it was going to change for the worse it did,nt do nothing but rain all day with visibility minimal on summits so if people have got round fantastic
Bad luck Daz, had a good trot over from Honister to Wasdale and back though, and me and Gem got fed and watered by the support crew, cheers lads. Crap weather. Put it down to more experience and a good training day
In a few minutes the map will show that the tracker has returned to the Moot Hall.
Congratulations to Claire if she is still attached to the tracker. It has been a long and wet journey.
XRunner, I will echo that. I have more respect for the completions this weekend and last that went over time than sub 24s in ideal conditions.
