My Garmin said about 3,000 feet ascent in the first 12.2 miles we were defeated by weather yesterday so I would say about 5500 of ascent as guess

A bit more than Southdowns Marathon and Purbeck

Yesterday's run was a gentle 9 mile, 1500ft climb. I think I really fancy this one.

The early start with 2 kids and a husband is the bit that worries me

Camping sounds fun, but I doubt the little guy will appreciate it. More over, I doubt the runners will like him waking them at 5am shouting for his favourite t.v. character
