Thanks to everybody for clearing up that.
As HappyG and Mrs S suggest, this is a bit of 'fun'.

Hi folks. A bit late to the party, but I've a virtual entry in for sprinting the west highland way.
Actually, since there are some that will do 95 x 1 mile reps for this and we'll see a sub-10 hour "winning" time, I'm not going to worry about time at all. Well, not in that sense. I'm doing this for the comunity and to make me run some extra miles too. Last week was over 50 miles, so I just need to round up a bit.
Since I'm working from home on Friday, I'll not be starting at midnight - which would just be wrong after a Thursday (!) but doing something a bit silly after Friday might be in order. Friday might be a local 12.4 miles to get to Drymen, going off a bit too fast perhaps as is tradition, then get to see the sun rising on Saturday morning ???
Looking into what fits into "broadly 5 miles" since that the local rules. A bit of "fun" indeed.

That's a lovely way to start and to think about it _andy. I've been doing a 3 mile run with my son most mornings so I will start with that. Then I thought I'd do the balance in the evening with a local friend. I probably won't make it to "Drymen" until Saturday.
I'm in it for the social, I hadn't even thought that people would try and do fast 1 mile reps!

I share your attitude, Mrs S. Just a bit of fun to help get me outside my comfort zone.

So I'm getting in the spirit of it and I've looked out all our whw race wearable merch. I bet some of you have stuff going even further back, my earliest stuff is from 2010. It's all here except I can't find the 2012 grey cotton t shirt with the drawing of the man running. Hopefully it'll turn up as it's one of my faves. I'm going to try and wear something from it each run.

Thanks Fenners, it's not all from running it! Five years crewing, three years running. Although crewing is harder than running, shall I start that little discussion again? 😉
