Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Last tracker ping was 21.48 on Melbreak. Split to Loweswater was supposed to be 21 mins. So eta at Loweswater was about 22.10. Schedule after a 5 min stop was to depart Loweswater at 22.12. So his hour advantage on his schedule has gone. The question is whether he can now stay with the schedule or if he continues to drop time? He has a big delta to play with between his schedule and the record but he has essentially just taken 3.5 hours for a planned 2.5 hour section.

Time loss is real not a tracker problem. He has lost over an hour since Dubs.
Confirmed departure from Loweswater was 10 mins behind schedule. Plan seems to be to reduce break at Ennerdale (planned arrival was 01.14 and then a two hour break) to make up time if he's behind.

JK was about 5 mins up at Ennerdale on his schedule. Cut the stop to around 1.40 and left 27 mins ahead of schedule. It's looking like by Haycock he had lost that advantage and is moving slower than he wanted. At Haycock he was roughly on his schedule and about 40 mins ahead of James.

His next original eta was 8.15 at Nether Wasdale. James equivalent time there was 10.50.

Doh! My early morning maths is not very good. I've moved James times the wrong way to adjust for the different start timed! JK was around 2.40 ahead at Ennerdale and his equivalent arrival time at Nether Wasdale is 12.50.

So 23 hours in JK is around 4 hours ahead of James but 37 mins behind his own schedule.

That's impressive. I wonder if his plan is to give a decent "up front" buffer?

He’s certainly slowed down, but given how hard he went yesterday I’m not surprised.

Thanks Phal, the Fellsman was interesting to say the least. Not being able to see more than 3 yards once it got dark was as hard a test of my nav as I've had in a very long time.

Next eta for JK on original schedule is 12.16 at Rossett Pike. James equivalent time there was 19.07.
