Post AW/TWA Sunday Lakes Run

I'm staying up after TWA and plan to do some BG reccying on Sunday with a couple of guys. Having run Leg 1 last weekend I'll do something different, although closure of Dunmail from just north of the BG layby does cause a slight logistics challenge. I'm thinking either Leg 2 as far as Dollywagon/Grizedale Tarn and back, or Leg 3 to Esk Hause and then back (probably taking the easier Old County Tops Line). Option 1 is around 32km and 2,000m ascent. Option 2 is a bit shorter with similar ascent.

Option 3 is a shorter foray of leg 5 and might well be determined by the number of beers consumed Saturday night!

Anyone who fancies joining us is more than welcome.

Cheers,

Tom

Hi Graham,

I haven't booked accommodation but have a plan with Larry to camp in Braithwaite, or stay in my static in Coniston. Final plans will come together next few days so I'll let you know! Either way you are welcome to come along.

Kirsty, not sure of the hostelry of choice yet, always enjoy the D&G and it would be an important recce for Leg 6! We can sort out a check point to meet on Sunday.

Looks like I need to pull my finger out on both counts! My mobile is 07968 550304. Drop me a text and we can sort the detail.

Cheers,

Tom

Now that sounds like a very important recce... Although it's the only leg I need no training on!

Hi Graham,
Just wondering whether I need to factor you in with accommodations plans? Need to make a call tomorrow. Camping now off the agenda and more likely to be B&B in Keswick, or Youth Hostel in Grasmere.
Cheers, Tom
