Fellrunning Nov 2013 7:03pm, 24 Nov 2013 1,016 posts	0 Fellrunning Doogs its a net downhill course (start is higher than the finish). Last k is downhill and fast. On a good day its a potential pb course. A world record was set there some years ago - albeit by two guys in a pantomime camel costume (but just over 44 minutes so pretty quick).

Fellrunning Nov 2013 8:33am, 25 Nov 2013 1,017 posts	0 Fellrunning Apologies for the misinformation - its some years since I ran it. I made the assumption that the course hadn't changed. For information the camel contained one Les Morton and one Peter Elliot. Both are now snugly retired....
