Typical struggling with a sprained Sacroiliac joint done on my very last job last Saturday. I am traveling down to Edale tomorrow but it's touch and go as to whether I start. Taking my car as there's no way at the moment I could carry my drop bag too. Before I go Ive got a desperate appointment at 8am in the morning with a Chiropractor. Can't quite believe it and wishing too late that I hadn't done that job especially as I wasn't going to work that day but a repeat customer couldn't wait a couple of weeks.
Here's hoping a miracle happens between now and Sunday.


Got everything crossed for you Slogger.

Me too, daft isn't it?  Seems like Emily Ledder has gone the wrong way on Kinder and around a dozen others have followed her!!  Leaders now at the downfall.

They are on their way back, they must be gutted so early on in the race to have made that mistake - head down and follow the one in front.

Maybe vis is poor but simple compass check should have warned them  that track was wrong one!

Is it possible to see the route someone has taken as well as where they are now?

 Its a cracking pace,leaders are almost at Torside.Layfield is looking very strong and all the talk about breaking course records might well be a little more than just hype. O0

I am sure you could last year, I think you clicked on them and then on the link in the pop up, but I can not get it to work this year.

There is a message when you left click that shows "More info. route and splits" that appears that it should give you the information but it isn't linking through as you would expect.

 Looks like Dominic Layfield (USA) has made a break and now has a small lead over the second place man.The rest of the field have been left behind.If he keeps going at this pace he might well break the record and by a considerable margin.

Crazy how the leader is almost at jacks bridge, it took me 3 days to get there and i was in a sorry state when i got to the pub there. How they can do that pace in the dark is quite amazing. Am in awe at these people!! O0
