120 minutes till the start of Marmot Dark Mountains 2014! Location: Glossop, UK. Format: Mountain marathon run overnight under a dark sky in the Peak District. My friend and I are one of 15 teams doing the Long Score format. We finish in daylight on Sunday morning.
It’s cold up there so my pack will weigh about 7 kilos. It’s also going to be windy and there are mercilessly few obvious features in the dark and bleak Peak at night. My adrenaline is coursing and I should really shoot off to get to the event HQ in time.
More to follow upon my return!
Keep racing!

GOOD LUCK !!
I am inspired and in awe š
Thank you! I’ve just come off the hills after ten hours. A well organised event. The sun is due to rise shortly, but hopefully I’ll be showered, fed & in bed soon!
Fantastic. Congratulations!
