Well done to everyone. Very big respect to all the 100 ers. If I didn't say it on the way past, I was very much thinking it...but too tired and sore to speak. |

| Thankyou to whoever gave the tip about the OMM stuff, (cute black and white dog take note, don't want you ranting at me), would never have thought of checking e bay. managed to get a cheap OMM kamleika (?) smock. I'm just hoping it is the real thing. or I will look quite silly.....I was planning to wear my 20 year old pac a mac, but wasn't sure how that would go down with the kit checkers.... |

Thanks for the shoe advice jimmy and haile - much appreciated. The Salomons get brilliant reviews, so look to be a good investment. I'm now getting blisters from my road shoes (for the first time) and feeling so panicky about the whole thing I'm having palpitations every time I look on the lakeland 50 website...... |

I think the course might be on 2 OS maps, but they should be easily bought in ambleside/kendal. I got mine in Lancaster. Have a great weekend - hope it's not TOO hot. |

please may I chip in and ask some advice about shoes....I'm training in trail shoes (inov8), but finding that my hips and knees are in bits once I'm running over 20 miles. As a newcomer to this sort of running, is this just to be expected, with the up/down hills???Or should I rethink my footwear??? I note on the Lakeland 50 website, that the expert chap is saying that road shoes would be ok for the 50....but I'm a bit scared of breaking a leg which would be most inconvenient... |
