I got to Honister at 1710 and he was already on his way up Dale Head!

Wowzers! A new record, by a long, long way - absolutely amazing stuff!
Phenomenal!
Awesome achievement
Got to Keswick and the market square was pretty busy. By the time he arrived there were close to a thousand there. Chatting to Billy Bland he said there were just six there at the finish when he posted his time.
Unofficially 12:52, there may be a minute plus or minus.
The run is up in Strava for anyone interested in the stats.

And he was still getting top 10 in segments up to Honister on a ‘morning run’. If only I’d not had the garden bench to fix...
Incredible. A suitably awesome effort to top Billy's legendary marker. Will it ever be beaten? Surely no-one in the UK at the moment could get anywhere near it, and it's probably a little esoteric for other big world names to have a pop.
