Goldbeetle, sorry for late response. I live in North Devon in Barnstaple. If I come down, it'll probably be by train, and I think I'd camp. I'm seeing if I can afford both this one and Chester, which I've already entered, AND get both past a missus who wants a holiday lol

You are most welcome SOLB

Thank you, spose I'd better actually do some running at some point then

Would be usefultry putting some hill repeats in they will come in handy

14/01/2013 at 16:03

so I hear! How bad is this course profile *wonders if she really wants to know* 

14/01/2013 at 16:09

Like the look of this one, but entered North Devon ANOB on the 30th ... mmm ... could I do the double ... most probably will not get the wife's visa for that!

But 2014 looks good mara Sat and half Sun!

RB yeah the half has the working title

'orrible 'arf becuase its .....

SOLB will post a provisional route next week but lets just say it compares favouably with the likes of South Downs and Beachy. My running mate Fu Man said it was tougher than Purbeck. But theres the added bonus of the Enigma/RW/Fetch 20 mile love-in

14/01/2013 at 16:33

Ahhh of course, if you provide a love in I couldn't care less about the hill profile  

14/01/2013 at 16:35
Solb. I will get you pounding up those hills with a beam on your face for the camera at the top
14/01/2013 at 16:42
If I get my missus to agree to me doing this run, stagger, walk, I'm already dreading the hills

(((SOLB)))  *bounce, bounce*

Missus reckons hills are character building. Who's she kidding? She doesn't have to run them
14/01/2013 at 18:07
I run hills regularly. You can always *jog* the hills
14/01/2013 at 18:15

I jog the flat bits, I was hoping to get a piggy back ride up the hills.

Hills are:

  1. Speed training in disguise.
  2. The best way while racing, to make new friends slow walking encourages chatting.
  3. Theres a good view at the top of every hill guaranteed 
  4. The chance a dusky maiden/hunk from St.Johns will give mouth to mouth at the top
  5. Theres a downhill.
We have several downhill that make run down shouting"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" the one at Lyons Gate is ACE

I was going to roll down the downhills.
