      Walked the last 14 miles 10 of them in the dark with two lads if I'd not done it with them I'd have probably thrown the towel in!

    I am so glad you made this video. I really wanted to see what the LAP was like, a few of the people I run with were doing it. How did you know the route? Does LAP stand for something? Great achievement.

    • @NorthernFellRunning
      @NorthernFellRunning  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Olga.
      To follow the route, you are given a map and they send yoy a GPX file to download to your nav device or watch. Also, the entire course is marked with little blue arrows. All 47 miles!!!
      'Lap' just means a circular route returning to the same position around an object or place. 😊👍🏻

      @OlgasBritishFells 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@NorthernFellRunning oh thank you for the information. Oh I thought "lap" actually stood for something but it's just a lap :-) I didn't realise you could use GPX navigation. So they are allowed in trail races?!! I just have this anxiety of getting lost after I went down the wrong valley during Black Combe fell race because it was very foggy. It's good that the route is marked.
