Andrew and Alan Elwood have written an account of their Bob Graham Round. It is an interesting read, showing just how much preparation and logistic support is required if you are to attempt a challenge on this scale. The account goes beyond a description of what happened during the 24 hours. It provides valuable information about training, food, support team and recce for anyone thinking of taking up the “BGR” challenge or, indeed, a similar challenge.
Their first “attempt” converted to a completed “round” at their first go, in June 2021. The account is here. The account will have ongoing relevance so I’ve created a permanent place for it on our website – see “Resources” -> “Long Distance Challenges”.
