Or run the other direction. Where the canal has been removed for roads, follow the same direction as the canal and rejoin as soon as possible after the road.

Has anyone tried this yet,?

I came here wondering the same thing! It's been an intention of mine for a while, but I didn't realise there was an FKT set up for it!

Are you going to try it john?

im planning on trying it 7th march

if you try it! What category are you thinking of and when

Im going to give it a go yeah! It's a little too far at the minute (I'm south derbyshire) but I grew up in the vale so always thought it would make a good challenge!

Don't know when, but probably unsupported I think. How about yourself?

If you go unsupported I will probably do one of other categories that way we both get a shot ?

Staking our claim for a FKT. Me and Neil Cooper ran it today.
