To beat the record he must arrive in Kirk Yetholm before 22:20 Sunday.
On the 1st leg he was 24 minutes ahead of plan (Edale to Hebden)
Then down to 10 minutes ahead (Hebden to Gargrave)
Then 3 minutes ahead (Gargrave to Horton)
The 61 minutes behind schedule, Horton to Hawes
Now 2 hours 42 minutes behind schedule, Hawes to Tan Hill
After the 1st 'waypoint' time gain, he has fallen progressively further behind the planned elapsed times. He had lost his initial gain by the time of arrival at Horton and it then started to go badly wrong from there.
He is now 2 hours 42 mins behind schedule which is unlikely to be recovered, and with only a 1 hour 'window' between the record and his original planned ETA I cannot see him wanting to push himself much further.
A very good effort which I cannot imagine ever undertaking - all credit to him.
Maybe the excessive heat has taken its toll, I guess we will never know.
