Thank you so much, really appreciate that 👍

Thank you 👍 Ingleborough, foggy? Who would have thought! It’s been like that pretty much every time we’ve been up there. There’s not been many occasions where we’ve seen any views. It’s such a flat plateaux that I can see why many struggle to find the trig!

Thanks Johnny. Love the route having done it quite a few times now. We even did a double and a triple though yet to go all out for the quad. That’ll take some doing 😂 We’ve also yet to do it as a race. Should really, if not only for the alternative route up Whernside. I see you also have a channel, will take a look later 👍

I think we needed that, if not physically then certainly mentally!! Thanks again 😊

Thank you, such a great route isn’t it? I don’t think we could ever tire of it. I think we need to enter the actual race at some point as that would give an alternative feel to it. As for Vaga caps, we both love them. So light and comfortable!

We thought the same around 16 miles in, the last 8 being somewhat difficult. Still, spending time out in fantastic places really does help. We’ve yet to be caught in a thunderstorm, hopefully it stays that way! Thank you 😊

You’ll have a brilliant time in the Lakes, I’m sure of it. Views are always an added bonus but don’t always expect them 😂 Fingers crossed though! We had Peregrine 11’s which I liked, Cheryl not so much. Our shoes of choice are probably between Inov8 (Trailfly G270’s, Trailfly G280 Ultras, X-Talon G260 Ultra v2’s), Altra Lonepeaks and Hoka Speedgoat 5’s. The Hokas were perfect for Lakeland 100 👍 Thank you.

Thanks Andy. Don’t worry, she’s fine 😉 Got a few runs to do in the Lakes so nothing a few full English breakfasts prior won’t sort out. As for the Y3P’s, I’m surprised you have yet to do the route. When you do get around to it I’m sure you’ll love it. You can always give us a shout when you’re free and get can have a little bimble over them 👍

@@TrailRunningCouple Yes, it's strange I've never done the Y3P's. Dont know why to be honest. Sure i'll let you know when I'm doing it. Need to build up my speed first 😆

There won’t be any speed, just a leisurely day out. Always have to save some for Ingleborough!

Thank you so much, needed the rest but definitely forced rather than chosen. I think 16 miles would have been around right today, the last 8 became difficult but it’ll come back I’m sure. Thanks again ☺️

Thanks Steve 👍

Thanks Ben 👍

Thanks so much 😊

Hi Ryan, thank you 😊 On this occasion we didn’t need any top ups. We both drank less than 500ml. However, there’s a stream we use before the road section that takes you to Whernside and again just before the start of the climb to Whernside. Between Whernside and Ingleborough there’s Philpin Farm where you’ll find a vending machine and then another source near the top of the steep rocky climb to Ingleborough. We use filter flasks for any pick ups. Best of luck for your attempt, it’s a great route👍

@@TrailRunningCouple that’s great info thankyou for the heads up, 🤞 for a sub 6hours 😃

Thanks Karen, still nice to be out. Tired now though 😂

@@TrailRunningCouple I’ve been floored by the lurgy! I think it’s properly doing the rounds and it seems to be taking ages to go! But sometimes you just need to get out! Enjoy your time in the lakes ☺️

@karencort4062 Thanks Karen, hope you’re feeling better. We’ve both felt so tired and had an awful persistant cough, chills and loss of voice. Not nice!

I’m feeling better but it’s just taking aged to clear, I’ve had a head cold which went to my chest 😫 We need the better weather 😅

Hi Alan, it’s a great route 👍 Parking is £5.50 all day but get there early. The carpark fills up very quickly and only has around 80 spaces.

Hi Carl, on this occasion it was 5hrs 29mins total. Usually we’re closer to 5hrs. Neither of us are fast runners though 👍
