Description

A wonderful run around the Fairfield horseshoe, the second half a recce of the lakes in a day ultra marathon.
Gin clear conditions and light wind Made marking my map for the race easier.
Really good prep for the race event
Noted a couple of areas where real care has to be taken down climbing a few steep rocky sections
Fail to plan plan to fail !

Area : Eastern Fells
