Lapsed Athlete Apr 2011 6:29am, 21 Apr 2011 3,469 posts	0 Lapsed Athlete This will be my last long run before Windermere and a PB attempt as my current one is rather soft. This is assuming my legs are still working after my leg of the Highland Fling next weekend.

Yorkshire Pie Apr 2011 12:34pm, 21 Apr 2011 8,392 posts	0 Yorkshire Pie I've only had a chip on the back of my number once, Blackpool half several years ago I think it was. I have a vague recollection that they didn't work particularly well...

Meglet Apr 2011 4:32pm, 21 Apr 2011 7,085 posts	0 Meglet Long steady uphill at 3-4 miles. Long way round the ringroad. Downhill to Kirkstall. Don't take my word, I've spectated twice but never run. I notice they've cut out the awkward bit round the houses near Dpen Lane.
