    Glen Nevis campsite is very accommodating - excellent facilities and plenty of choice of where to pitch your tent. Not too far to walk into Fort William - theres even a bus if your legs are too kna****ed after the effort on Sat PM

    Wobblehead, are you in? Anyone else?
    Yep, I'm in. Bit worried about the pre race prep though, a week in the sun with too many beers and food!

    Should be doing the same, but after Gargrave on Saturday and Sedburgh yesterday, I'm officially resting today!

    Think I better get Mrs Wobble to pack the running kit.

    Re: The Ben Race

    Anybody whos intrested a few of us get together in the Imperial hotel bar on Friday night before the race where we have a sweepstake, You put a pound in and have a guess at your finishing time, We meet at the same place after the presentation on Sat night about nine and present the nearest to their finishing time with the total of all entries. Its quite intresting to see the differences in estimated to actual.
