I wonder how the algorithm accounts for known patches of boggy terrain, minor undulations, runners trods, impassable crags etc
Along with flanker's comment about strengths and weaknesses of the athlete I seriously question whether an algorithm is optimal.

Lol DT. 😂 the fat levels need a bit of topping up given the forecast temperatures plus the extra weight helps me actually stay on the ground 😉

Yes. I think, from my very non-technical brain point of view, there is a lot that the spreadsheets etc can do. But they won’t be able to match on the ground knowledge of runners and supporters.
Think that’s why I’m so impressed. I’m in awe of the knowledge and experience some people possess. But it really brings it home when it’s so clear.

It looks like they’ve both got away. Has Tom intentionally chosen the boggiest bit first?

I don't think bogginess was part of the reasoning, but it does seem that way 🙄

High Tove, Armboth etc. Heavy rain overnight, it will be awful.

Is today the first day of the window of the winter round? I’m guessing they’re both heading out now before it gets even wetter and snowier?

Any news from out on the hills as to how the guys have faired overnight ?
They are moving at a remarkably similar pace. If you take the time from their 1st "same" top, ie High Rigg, to Pillar, then almost identical times of 23.5 hours
