In reply to Darren09: Cheers, pretty daunting but will be a great experience. Just 2 more weeks of high mileage left, pretty shattered right now.

Congratulations indeed!

... Ricky Lightfoot won Borrowdale last year. I was 'researching' this in the bar of the Scafell Hotel last weekend.

Good luck Iain, we're expecting great things from you ;=)!

In reply to Darren09:

Stupid question, by the way - what exactly is the difference between trail running and fell running?

In reply to johncoxmysteriously: Well this is misleading as its ultra-distance, so 75km, so Trail running world champs misses out the crucial bit.

But fell running is normally trackless.. mountain running merges with trail running much more. I suppose a ven diagram would be best where you have some races which you could class as any of the 3...

But this is 5 very runnable 9 mile loops with 1500ft ascent per lap, fully flagged out, no navigation.

In reply to IainRUK: At least you didn't get lost in the woods like certain Team GB ladies I know
 Banned User 77 07 Jul 2013
In reply to Wonrek: Ahh really felt for her, she lost a chunk of time, 25-30 minutes someone said, pretty upset by it at the time I think but got gong again. No idea how it happened as it was very well marked, but she think as the TV wagon may have been in the way of a sign..


 Wonrek 07 Jul 2013
In reply to IainRUK: lol, she's been taking navigation lessons from me I expect! We've all done it I guess but yes, I was gutted for her, such an amazing runner.

Well done on your result, great running

Just watched the repeat from last night, impressive stuff. Any luck getting a copy Iain? If not I'll see if I can get the recording off my hard drive onto DVD.

So, from the blatant product placement, I'm assuming you managed to get that Ibuprofen sponsorship deal sorted?

In reply to steelbru: Strange.. I did no qualifying events, they used the world champs as a qualifier I think. Thanks for that anyway.
