or so the saying, or a derative of it, goes
for me, this short run ranks way above any other i know of
start at the low wood hotel on windermere
run uphill for around 2.5 miles and 1400ft up to wansfell pike
do not disturb fell ponies as you pass
get to cairn, in the clag, out of breath for photoshoot opportunities
pause for more breath, taking close in shot of upper cairn
start descent of 1400ft over 2.5 miles
run for your life on bottom fields
way faster than feels safe
legs can hardly keep the pace gravity demands
so fast its totally liberating
brake before kissing gate
compose oneself
walk through gate, back to 'civilisation', wearing a massive grin
love it
nice one charlie

Hi Ultra Collie,
It looks like you had a challenging short run! Running up hill I know I woud of been sucking air! Running down hill must of been something...like you said...liberating:)
Great pictures...you got one of Charlie too:)
Does having Wansfell to one's self make it Onesfell? Gorgeous route; it works in mist or great vis.
just lovely :)
Good stuff
wow it looked so much different from the bedroom window ;)
going back soon ???? x
