I'm Dave Taylor, Fell Running Guide, an experienced competitive fell runner (2nd place in the British Championships (V40) in 2006 and 1st in the English Championships (V50) 2015). I have also completed The Bob Graham, Paddy Buckley and Charlie Ramsay Rounds in under 24 hours. I work as a UK Athletics Fell and Mountain running coach and offer guided running, coaching and navigation training for trail and fell runners.
@@psgraphics05 I've not tried the H10 but heard good reviews. I've had the Garmin Run for about 5 years (maybe more) and never had any problems with it. It's definitely more reliable than the Coros Optical band.
absolutely outstanding content - do you have a way of thanking you...? love it...heading off on a long wilderness hike and this is exactly what i needed ...many thanks ...cheers
@@bilaltahir9978 Nothing really, a reentrant is just a miniature valley. We tend to think of valleys as large features, maybe with rivers, roads and buildings whereas a reentrant is much smaller and can just be a kink in the contour lines.
There is a geographical difference. The high ground above valleys tend to run parallel the high ground above re entrants or draws run perpendicular. Re entrants tend to be steeper as well.
@fellrunningguide are your in person courses suitable for fast hikers or just for runners? I was worried I may be too slow. I've seen that you have a course on offer next weekend in the Peak District that I may email you about (if it hasn't sold out already) but would be good to know first if it is appropriate for me
@@bilaltahir9978 We do some running but it is stop / start and easy pace. The emphasis is on the navigation rather than the running. The Advanced day is more fast hiking rather than running.
I think I could make a strong case for it being the far left creek entrance coming into the Howden Clough. In the photograph the line of the feature to identify (the valley as it were) seems to be at a strong 45 degree angle to a line of sight that goes just left of it. That is, it angles from NE to SW. The line of sight can be easily be drawn from the camera point through the two groups of trees and the bare slope and head enough north to be the correct line of sight for the Howden Clough creek. It seems like the creek of the Ridge Nether Moor almost could be said to be heading NW to SE. It would only be the tiniest part of it that could conceivably be heading in the correct direction. I don't know how to compare the two possibilities in size as related to what one sees and what is shown on the map. So, can you tell me what is wrong with my thinking? Also, I think I mentioned on another video, I love these challenges! 😊
Have a look at the video at 2.25 which talks about the ground to the north of the photo location being higher. That would hide the view to Howden Clough. Also, the high ground below the word Nether (Nether Hey) is higher than the kink in the "creek" that you mention, so again it would be hidden from view. Glad you like the videos Cynthia, thanks for watching.
@@fellrunningguide haha, I recognised shining tor after a wildcamps there, I recognised the wall on the left of the picture and remember seeing shutlingloe in the distance...so I kind of cheated on this one 🤣
Great to see this Dave, I was led up Linch Clough for the first time last Wednesday night without a clue where I was and was glad to be with some super navigators. who took us in a circular route up to Barrow Stones
Cheers Dom. It's great up there, well worth exploring. Navigation isn't too difficult as you have some main valleys to guide you (if you can see them!) Thanks for watching.
@@JackthesmilingblackAt 30 seconds I say what map it is (Harvey Superwalker 1:25,000). If I gave compass direction it would make the task too easy! The idea is that you study the features to work out the answer.
Your experience is like mine. I’ve always had a problem with cadence lock affecting heart rate displayed on my Garmin watches. It’s the same on my latest Garmin, the 265. Really annoying because these sudden spikes skew all my performance stats. I had hoped an arm band HRM would solve the problem and chose the COROS because it got good reviews. Sadly, I am still getting HR spikes - often way above my max HR - in around half my runs. The spikes start within a couple of minutes of starting a run and often last a long time before the Garmin Connect graph shows my heart rate dropping off a cliff back to where it should be. If I take off the watch and/or arm band, wait a while and put them back on, my heart rate displayed generally goes back to normal. I’ve manually turned off watch heart rate rather than have it switch to COROS automatically but to no avail. I can see the watch HRM is off because there are no green lights on the back but the displayed heart rate is way too high. Sometimes the COROS works perfectly but I can’t rely on it in a race. I’ve just ordered a Polar Verity Sense in the hope it may work better for me.
@@peterjohnson653 That's interesting Peter. One of the frustrating things for me is that it only happens occasionally and unpredictability. I can go for weeks thinking that the arm strap is accurate then one day it will be obviously wrong, but only for part of the run. I'd be interested to hear if the Polar Verity is any more reliable. Thanks for commenting.
Cheers, Dave. I’d been searching for hours to see if anyone had experienced the same issues with the COROS HRM. It must be something odd with me as my wife uses all my old Garmins with no problem. Such a disappointment that my arm band HRM does the same. The Verity Sense is on Prime Day deal today so I’m taking a punt. Will comment here once I’ve tried it. Ps I’m a one-time fell runner too, a member of Mercia, but now stick to road and trail races at the age of 71 due to creaky knees and hallux limitus .
Apologies for banging on, but I’ve just spotted we were both in the fell relay champs at Lomond Hills in 2010. My Mercia V50 team got silver medal less than a minute behind your Dark Peak colleagues!
Ive seen the cones before but how did you make it adjustable without altering the cone shape. Is i just larger at the bottom. Thanks for the great idea
Yes it's a cone rather than cylinder so it's wider at the bottom than the top. I made it to fit that particular mug. I suggest getting some paper or thin card and experimenting making cones of different dimensions to fit your mug. Once you're happy use that as a template with some aluminium (or even titanium sheeting). Thanks for watching.
You place the coros where coros tell you without looking where are you'r veines. I wear mine inside my forearm where i have big veines and it’s bether .
@@fellrunningguide look for the best veine that you can see, put it on an make a test. ((( If you want ))) for me insiste my forearm, close to my elbow = sweet spot.
Cheers ive been looking at the one wind light weight shelter that is this shape .doubles as a poncho . Think i will try this first with my dd small tarp .good idea.
