    the BBC say its 2 years befor the next one
    who have they been talking to

    its Bi Annual not Bi Yearly
    that is 2 times a year not every two years

    you have the EVIL but excellent winter Toughguy
    and the girly but tough summer Toughguy traditionally called the nettle warrior
    because the first few hundred have to break the path through the waist high nettles on the x-country bit
    by the time the mere mortals run through its a bit like a bridle path

    in the winter you do a longer run but only one lap of the assault course
    you do run the risk of hypothermia if you are not protected against the wind once you are wet

    in the Summer you do a shorter run ( but the slalom is much harder ) and 2 laps of the assault course
    and you actually look forward to the water as July is usually warm and after the run your blood is up
    but…
    and here is the killer because of the slime and general greenage growths on top of the water
    the sun does not actually warm it up - so its only every feeling like 10 degrees warmer than winter

    in the winter the average time is 2.5 - 3hrs
    in the summer its closer to 3.5 ( that second lap is a killer )

    here are some of my fun days out

    Did you do it this year

    they sortened the course i think they were expecting it to be alot colder

    and they put the slalom straight away in the run section with about 8-10 ups and they hurt as you will remember

    all the best

    go on do the summer one
