Hey FenlandRunner, I've been thinking about your comments on the previous page quite a bit (about how you may as well enter a road marathon if you're not going to take in the surroundings). I think you've got it back to front. In training for the Lakeland races you get an excuse to go and run in the hills more than you perhaps would normally. On those training runs I'll stop and take in the views, generally have a great day out in the hills. However, come race day I'll be trying to work hard and cover that ground as quickly as possible. I don't think that's a bad thing at all. most of us like to race hard and have run running days too. Why not have those hard days in the environment that you love rather than out on a road course?

Who said the 100 was full cos it doesn't look that way? Looks like there are about 50 places left?
