Saw it on fb Graham doing the Joss Naylor Challenge.
Looks like he is moving well. Sub 11 hour schedule may be?

There's a lovely write-up by Graham of his record JNC run on that internet. I will find it again and try to post a link. Well worth reading

This one? http://www.lakelandtrails.org/downlo...engeRecord.pdf
did he Strava it...if it's not on Strava...
Great run.
Interesting that Graham chose to do this solo.
The JNC, like the Bob Graham, has a base stipulation for "membership" and the award of the tankard as outlined on the website:
Most fell runners find rules tedious and although anyone can do the route unsupported and in their own time there are a few requirements to be satisfied if attempts are to be validated and tankards awarded. This is intended to be a supported run for individuals with a pacer on each leg for safety reasons. It is not a group event.
I hope he won't be disappointed......
Knowing he set a new record should be consolation enough for possibly not receiving a tankard
well done Graham!
Thanks Mark. That's the one

After 10 years of conversations in my capacity as Secretary of the Bob Graham Club with fell runners who want membership on their terms rather than on the (very few) published "rules" that need to be satisfied to complete that challenge, you might be surprised by how important both the recognition and the certificate is to many people. I can't speak for the tankard.....
That's why I'm interested when someone decides to depart from a published and encouraged approach, especially one with it's roots in personal safety.
