Apparently I'm better qualified for the eye candy role. So I'm obviously the last person you need to be running!
I'll do the Wasdale head stage (I'll be in the big white building if you can't find me). And do you need one near the ODG too?

I'm up for it next year. It's been on my list since 1990.
I've not been in any hurry to tackle it- the pinnacle of any running career, but I'll turn 42 at VLM in 2011, and after all that was the age at which BG did his BRG.
I've got 3 colleagues who've already offered pacing if I ever wanted to do it (they are all successful BGRs).
What's your schedule? Classic clockwise 23 hour one?

At the moment I'm thinking 23 hour clockwise, midnight start. But thats all subject to change dependnat on how training goes and how I feel closer to the time.

23hr clockwise is my kind of thinking. I'd like to do the last section from Honister to Keswick - I know the area well as my parents have a house in Littletown and it would be like "coming home" from Gable to Honister to Dale Head etc.

Forgot to say:
After reading this thread last night, I went straight to the bookshelf and dusted off my trusty 1992 copy of "42 Peaks" and read it cover to cover. Again. Got to sleep >2am!
