"March 1960
All 264 stations in 18 hours, 35 minutes
George Hurst and Jane Barwick"

So that makes at least four women who have held the record.

Yeah, but only one has done it on their own, with their own route so clearly the only one worth talking about :P ;)

Well, if we assume that Jane Barwick was 20 in 1960, she would now be 72.

Our attempt is planned for one of the busiest tube days before Christmas, Friday 21st December. This is not deliberate, but is the only day we are both free before Christmas. We are still definitely not going to aim for a WR but would love to complete a 270!

Vicki and I will be tweeting from the team's @to_the_trains twitter - we will not update this thread on the day.

A week to go, we are both unwell and trying to get better soon after doing some point person work with Geoff and Ritchie last night.

Anyone is welcome to come along and say hi if you would like! Geoff will be bringing us tea all day. And we will be making similar bizarre demands that we receive from him on his challenges - eg unabashed bananas, and chocolate at late notice where there are no shops! :)
