For me it's linking up Whinlatter with the likes of Barf, Lord's Seat and Graystones, hopefully in one logical route, without putting too many miles under my belt the day before such a monstrous race...!
I did a 22 mile reccie of a Snowdon Ultra route I'm doing in May on the Thursday, 18 miles of 7 Lorton Wainwrights on the Friday and then Eskdale Elevation on the Saturday. Was goosed before I started the race. Surprisingly, I didn't run brilliantly :-)

I started up Sale Fell, Broom Fell, Lords Seat, Barf, Whinlatter, Graystones, Ling Fell. Some steep stuff, climb up Graystones from Scawgill Bridge was pretty miserable and the Whinlatter bit was a little dull IMO, but the Vale of Lorton v good.
