This event is approaching rapidly - 14 Sept. The organisers have published some GPX routes which are broken down into sections between checkpoints.

I wondered whether anybody has knitted together the GPX 50K route ? That would be a bit more convenient than switching between routes on the day. I think I have figured out how to knit the sections together, but if somebody else has done it already, that would be great :-)

I know the route is supposed to be marked, but after Sunday's experience at the Hardmoors Saltburn marathon, I will be happier having the route on my Garmin as a backup

Thanks pdavey :-) I had a look at the Facebook and found someone else looking for the same thing so I will give it a while and then dive in and try and knit them together myself

See you there :-)

I will be pleased to get to the top of Stake Pass. Hopefully it should be light :-)
