Simon,
yep I'm injured - and out of any serious running till next year - but we are hoping to be up there that weekend anyway.

Kath, that sounds a bit grim....next year?! :o Good luck with that. Be good to see you up there.

Julie, be good to see you. Don't know where you want to join in. Brian doing most of the road support, except Wasdale where a friend of mine (Jane) will be waiting.

Road crossings are scheduled as:
Threlkeld@ 22.10
Dunmail@ 02.43
Wasdale@09.35
Honister@14.39

Beer@17.54!

Just hope for good weather and a bit of fun.

Thanks to everyone for your support.

I shall do my best to finish with my club vest on! :D

I currently have a vacancy for a water carrier on Leg 4 to keep myself, Geoff Pet and Peter McNulty company from Wasdale.

Any takers?

Hi Simon,
there was a possibility I might have come up but family commitments don't allow. The forecast for next week end is currently looking ideal; you've done the groundwork so all you need to do is remember to keep eating and drinking.

Good luck

Thanks Barry.

Personally speaking, eating and drinking are rarely a problem! :D

Yes have a good one Simon, would love to offer to help out on Leg 4 but am being plagued by niggling injuries at the moment so taking a few weeks off running

Thanks to all for your support, and Martin, thank you for stepping in. Spoke to Geoff Pet, who will call you later about the possibility of car sharing.

Once again, THANKS TO ALL....

Was wondering how Simon was getting on. Seems he has a tracker on. The tracker got to Wasdale and then went back to Keswick via the road! Hopefully it's with a supporter rather than Simon. Any updates?
