Any LRCs (UK or otherwise) ever ran this:-
https://www.highterrainevents.co.uk/scafell-pike-marathonSeriously tempted as it looks absolutely incredible. Anyone ever ran this? And if so, how did you do time-wise compared to a flat marathon (just looking to judge if this would kill me!).
I haven’t run that one - I’ve run other events by High Terrain - but friends of mine have.
Scafell Pike is England’s highest peak. It’s also rocky AF at the summit. Yes, compared to a road marathon it will kill you! Which is not to say you shouldn’t give it a go; you just need to treat it as the different kind of beast that it is. Have you done any fell running in the Lakes?
