of time? But if you ask me what my favourite race is for historical reasons, I'd say it's the Grasmere Sports, which is basically from the Grasmere Field up to the top of Buttercrag and back.
8:45
And it's about, I think it's about a mile and three quarters or something like that.
8:49
And it's done in, you know, 10-12 minutes, I think 12.01 or something is the record time.
8:55
So it varies from that to anything 20 plus distance, long races in the lakes, or say the Three Peaks is 24 miles.
9:06
If you talk about mountain races, one aspect of it is what's organised by the World Marathon Racing Association, WMRA.
9:18
And this is kind of a European organization that runs things like or the vertical K races that you can get where you've got to go up kilometers worth of height in a very short amount of time.

If you'd like to benefit from having a cheerleader on your side, helping you to think about and focus on the things that make the biggest difference and provide you with a range of tools to help you get the most out of yourself and your teams every day, then Empowered 2 is definitely for you.

Okay, Steve, so we're on to habit three.
26:49
Number three.
26:50
Number three, it's kind of based round, uh, climbing, uh, the Cuillin Ridge, uh, which you may know of in, in Skye.
26:59
I'd done a fair amount of climbing when I was, was, uh, more active with my friend, uh, Mike, who could take me up things that I wasn't capable of leading.
27:07
And, uh, we used to think nothing of driving up from London to Skye for a long weekend to do climbing on the Cuillins 'cause it's such fabulous rock to climb on.
27:16
Um, and we always had the ambition to do the Cuillin Ridge, which is, I don't...
27:21
I can't remember what it is, 12K, uh, long, 11 Munros, 22 tops, um, with climbing and abseiling involved.
