Living in Somerset we don't have access to a lot of fell races, but have done the Grizzly twice, (which I think would be equivalent to a BL) and also a local race the Exmoor Seaview which is 21 miles along the North Devon/Somerset coastal path. (It includes a 1000ft climb up one hill). However each race took me about 4 hours, would this be too slow.
Welcome Lesley to the forum.
The organisers will be strict on the entry races but will not take time in to account providing you completed them before all the marshalls went home.

Then comes the BUT

On the 3 peaks there are 2 cut off points I believe. One at Ribblehead and one at the Hill Inn. If you're not there before the cut off you are sent back to the start/finish tent.

I hope this helps you out, no doubt someone will clarify the cut off points with a distance and time for you.

Enjoy your running
