I can answer your other question, Pete. The picture is looking up Grinds Brook Clough from the bottom of Ringing Roger. The left hand summit is Hartshorn, and the crags below it are Upper Tor. The right hand crags are Nether Tor. Ringing Roger itself is further to the right.

Trouser changes on route might have got even more enthusiastic cheering from the walkers!

BTW, I agree, a bog is “not what you want under your feet when you’re running that far”; I recommend the pedals of a mountain bike! (with run-flat tyres)

I forgot to add our times – I was pretty tired last night! I’ll have a look later.

Colin: no prizes for us.
Pete: that was my number, I thought that there might be some clothing changes en route – but definitely not involving trousers!

Yet more impressive running action. But, what’s that white “bandage” on your leg Rachel, have you an injury?
No need for any apologies for possible inaccuracies, it’s a wonder that you can type at all after all that running!

Oh – maybe one for Paul – I wonder what the gritstone edge is on the skyline in your second pic?

So did you win a Skyline? Clarkson was very impressed with the new one when he tested it and not a run-flat tyre in sight
