Again, I'll come in here with a Max wisdom.

I think it'll take you about *holds out fingers* that long Ogee.

I did the first 35 before the Fling as the first part of a double (so taking it easy) at an average of about 12-13mm. That's taking it easy walking up the hills and gentle jogging the rest.

Ogee Davos was over 8000ft for less than half the distance so it will be easier than Davos x 2

ogee - when V, heebie, Slowboy and I did Trailwalker (which is just 62 miles of it - and the other way) we took 15 hours - and as we had to be together as a four (and obviously travelling at the pace of whoever was slowest at the time) that would have been quite significantly slower than doing it alone.
There are very few bits that are particularly steep or tough - and lots of sections where Good Progress can be made.

Beachy Head and the 7 sisters is quite a cheeky way to kick things off, mind! Very lovely, but quite cheeky. Bit like Tpod.

I still think we should do it the other way round, beachy head at night when you're knackered would be quite funny:)

The Chaplain service wouldn't know what to do with us all....
