to get a bit more climbing in i decided on a diversion at dungdeon ghyll, along the cumbrian way. hands up though i made a schoolboy navigation error and ended up, at angle tarn, a little way off from where i was planning on heading. PAY MORE ATTENTION NEXT TIME!
all the same it made for a good long climb and descent which served its purpose.
we got the most time on our feet we've had this year and so now i feel confident about osmotherley coming up in two weeks.
now then..the big debate.
his nibs flew yesterday and has shown no after effects..so will he make the team for the lakeland 50? i'm tempted even at his mature age..he's the canine equivalent of joss naylor i think! we'll perhaps check post osmotherley, but it would be fantastic to have him by my side for it..i mean somewhere up ahead. we'll see

Nav error, nah. It was a lakeland 55 recce.
Glad to hear its going well.
Angle tarn sounds quite a detour! Enjoyable long day though. I'm sure Charlie will be up for another 50
love the pictures :)
It sounds like you are going to be ready for your race! Quite a day, the photos look as though that trail is amazing.
Charlie looks like he can hold his own out there, great friend to have. Also looks very handsome with a summer cut.
His nibs will be fine for the 50 - just keep feeding him the flapjack. Glad the training is going well.
Good to see you running so well. I see what you mean with not so much sun there by you. Charlie seems to be in good shape!
i thought you were going to say your detour led to the odg hotel-lovely pint in there. so good to see all is going well. i'm sure charlie is going to be running long before we stop!!!
It just doesn't seem natural for the Cumbria Way to turn so much northwards when you're at the end of Mickleden; so it's an easy mistake to make. Angle Tarn's nice though isn't it! Glad you had a good day. Extra glucosamine for Lord Nibs in the weeks leading up to the 50. What does your vet say?
sbrt..like you're thinking!
de..worth the detour too
karen..as always :)
jp..charlie blushed
ali..and beef stew

kate..was tempted but it was a little early..even for me!
hf..he's on cartrofen..you cant get better (rx only)..amazing there isnt the equivalent for humans
Hi David! Wow! Gorgeous pictures of your race! Love the beautiful views of the countryside! Breath taking for sure! Of course I love the picture of Charlie:)
