Had a brilliant day out completing the Joss Naylor on Saturday and was really pleased and surprised to get back in less than the allocated 14 hours (13:14).
Big thanks to all my support team;
- Steve and Mike for getting me off to a great start on Legs 1 and 2 and for Phil guiding us down to Kirkstone. The weather was truly inspirational on leg 1 with stunning views and perfect conditions.
- Digby, Ross and Catherine for guiding me though the slightly more changeable conditions over the central fells and helping the time whizz by. It was great to see Hazel, Dave and Dave for a quick hug after Esk Pike! I was a bit puzzled by there being only 3, but it was a bit misty! I hope Andy is found???
- Martin and Steve who joined us at Styhead, (Steve again as he needs the practice to have a go later in the year!) and although it was a bit claggy and wet on Kirkfell we were all smiling and happy when Phil rejoined us at Haycock for the last two hills down (well up and down!) to Greendale where Joss was on the bridge to meet us.
- Melanie and Annette for bringing water, fruit and goodies up to Styhead and Black Sail pass.
- Phil and Martin for road support and Chris Cripps who allowed us to stay at his house, even though he was not there.
Steve was disappointed that he did not have to make me do a sprint finish off Seatallan, I was very relieved.
Phil was most anxious that I got around in time that we could all be in Gosforth Hall for 8:20, to make last orders for food! Luckily we made that in time too and were joined by John Bunyan who was up there to do a kayak event on Sunday!
