Sadly I crossed the line in 11M53S which is my slowest in 8 attempts over the last 10 years, though I'm still injured with a damaged left achilles. My best is 9M57S.

I had family at Mow Cop and used to run up that hill (and sledge down!) as a kid. Not a cat (Bagpuss?) in hells chance could I do it now. Good work!

Thanks Russ! Pictures don't do the steepness justice! I bet the brakes on your sledge didn't work to well!

Well done!! I'd love to try it one day, when I've lost another stone or two

Yeah, right! I’ve seen cars regularly struggle on that hill, let alone running up it.
