I'm 6 mins quicker on the Skyline

2006: 3hr 20mins for the Skyline
2007: 3hr 59mins for Tanky's

You'll have no problem getting under 4hrs.

Thanks to all of the race organisers and supporters for their efforts. What a day. Like most people I got dunked on the way up to Black Hill, and had to fish my mate out of Crowden Brook - so there is an advantage to being 13 stone after all!. I also got ambushed by the bog monster on the inappropriately named 5 minuite crossing. The mountain rescue folks at the top of Seal Edge seemed very chirpy - do they have a bottle of something stashed up there?

I was nearly 29 mins quicker on Tanky's as against Edale Skyline this year, and about 10 to 11 mins quicker than Tanky's last year.

Sounds great Geoff, where do I sign, dry right? Seriously would have liked to have been there yesterday, next year for sure. I'll need a reccy buddy though....anybody got any advice, is there any route info written down anywhere? Cheers DD

I'll gladly take you for a recce, DD, but there's no way I'm showing you the quickest lines!!! That's my only hope of beating you!

Just like to say "Well done!" to all (runners, rescuers & support) for Sunday. I'd heard from a mate who ran it about the stream crossings (i.e. raging torrents) and was, well, a wee bit sceptical. How wrong I was!

Wish I'd taken part but all the signs leading up were not good. Since I read that next year it'll be sunny and dry, put me down for that.

Thanks Geoff I think any line would be appreciated! God help us on Sunday though, it will be a case of follow the leader......for me anyway!
