Borrowdale Fell Race

[Feet in the Cowclaps]

Alf suggested this last year.

My suggestion for the latest times to arrive at the checkpoints would be:

Bessy Boot 11:54 am
Esk Hause 12:52 pm
Scafell Pike 13:32 pm
Great Gable 14:44 pm
Honister 15:29 pm

Give or take a minute or two

Anyone know what the procedure is for substitutions?

[Mr Ricepudding]

Okay - found it

... - I want to wear the 40th anniversary t shirt with a studied nonchalance when I'm shopping in Sainsbury's :wink:

I was doing that the other day in my 25th anniversary t shirt (which still survives!) though I was in Aldi :wink:.

Does that make me a 'has been', or a vintage archetype...?

Will someone be good enough to post split times for the various checkpoints based on a 15:25 (ie 5 mins to spare) arrival at Honister. I need to know what times I should be aiming for as this will be my 4th start and I would like to complete the goddam race - I want to wear the 40th anniversary t shirt with a studied nonchalance when I'm shopping in Sainsbury's :wink:

I may have asked this question previously but frankly life's short enough as it is without having to trawl through 200 n odd pages.

Well I did promise I would get the times to you but FITC has done the job for me :thumbup:

I'm trying to find out myself. I can't find any contact details on the website and the only instructions are that there won't be any entries on the day. I have an entry but am no longer able to make it. Not sure whether there is a reserve list. If so, I have an entry available.

Hey manhar, I will be there for my 2nd attempt at this one. While I did actually complete it 5 yrs ago, I got lost coming off great gable and it took me 5:20 so will be trying to knock 15 or so mins off that and if I do, I will be well chuffed (providing I don't get lost again

Does anyone know of a runner not able to do Borrowdale - substitution required for Hubby
