    Maybe we should get a 5 hour autobus going on cut-off schedule
    I should be OK to Ribblehead but always worry about the Hill Inn as Whernside is a pig. I think coming down is worse than going up

    You can label a couple of bottles up with youre number and leave them at the start in some plastic containers, they will then get dropped off at Ribblehead and Hill Inn

    For my 5 hour run I have decided I need to be at the top of Ingleborough with around an hour to spare. Wish me luck! Last time I did the race I descended Ingleborough in around 35 mins for a 3h39 finish.

    Anyone else planning on doubling up with Great Hameldon the next day? I'm planning a Fishwicking weekend with Wray Caton Moor on the Monday as well!

    It's a while since I did the PPP but thought Hill Inn checkpoint cut off was easier than Ribblehead. It depends on your flat speed versus climbing and descending (and how quickly you recover from climbing Whernside) I suppose. Don't be in a rush to start running the second you finish that tough climb is advice someone told me

    I'll see you all at the top of Whernside.

    Hopefully without the snow this year!
