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!

Bit damp here in the Lakes but currently not as bad as predicted. Very early days but Carol going ok. I've already had 3 breakfasts between checkpoints.

If you’re going to hang around in some obscure lay-by in the middle of nowhere in the rain it’s quite reasonable to expect to be fed (regularly) ;-)

Keeping everything crossed for better than predicted weather, Simon.

Excellent breakfasting skills indeed :-)

Reminds me of turning up at Wasdale for a leg 4 BG support and finding a group in the NT car park who we assumed where part of our round. After copious tea and cake me or Stef said what time are you expecting Andrew. We’re not, they replied. We’re supporting two women contenders :-)

That's a very aggressive schedule that Carol is aiming for, over 10 hours faster than Paul's time !

Will certainly be an interesting watch

Little note from Simon F on Facebook Gus:

"Note the schedule is aggressive and based on better weather than we're going to have, so no panicking!"

Gotcha phal, thanks :-)

Still says a lot about where she must feel she is physically and mentally to have put that schedule out in the public domain

I’m sure Simon, NE or Finn will know. Is there a comparible schedule that Carol planned this against? Or is this a case of a schedule has been worked out through her training and there is a bit of educated guess work in there?

AFAIK it's largely as per your last sentence. Simon is the best person to give you a complete answer though given how much time he has spent on the spreadsheet.
