My running just isn't fast enough to move it any distance worth really doing!

Grast_girl Nov 2020 4:27pm, 15 Nov 2020 1,683 posts	0 Grast_girl Does anyone else purge the really muddy bits for the winter? Technically they're not inaccessible, but I've never been a fan of the cross country stuff.
Velociraptor Nov 2020 4:36pm, 15 Nov 2020 49,806 posts	0 Velociraptor I move my bug if it lands on certain off-road paths after there's been a lot of rain. Although not technically inaccessible, at this time of year I don't have time on weekdays to do my actual training and go for a long walk in the dark wearing my wellies.

westmoors Nov 2020 7:37pm, 15 Nov 2020 4,507 posts	0 westmoors Yep, I mark as unreachable on paths that get waterlogged in the winter. As Doc says, your circle, your rules.
Oranj Nov 2020 8:13am, 16 Nov 2020 2,344 posts	0 Oranj I know we've had this debate a thousand times but I tend to keep on ploughing on. Putting on a headtorch and going for a muddy bimble to squish some markers is part of the challenge of the game.
CumbriAndy Nov 2020 8:21am, 16 Nov 2020 2,121 posts	0 CumbriAndy That's my approach too Oranj - but the fact that I'm comfortable trotting along a muddy footpath through the woods above the river in the dark doesn't mean it's right for everyone. If others wouldn't feel safe then it's fine to mark things as inaccessible and avoid the area. 'My circle, my rules' is a perfectly reasonable approach in my eyes.
