In short: An Idyllic Challenge!! In full: Only my second 'Trail' and again I was blown away by the organisation and friendliness. These are just brilliant events that have put the sheer fun back into my running! The autumnal atmosphere was amazing with reddening trees and mountains awash in mellow sunshine. The alternative car parking allowed me to park at the very edge of Coniston Water, where I had a post race paddle to wash the mud off!! Idyllic x
(However, I really must run these faster....) Date of review: October 7, 2012

In short: Bogtrotters!! In full: My first Lakeland Trail (and first trail run of any kind) so didn't know what to expect. Took the first tasty incline too easy and was thigh deep at times through the bog. But now I know what these bad boys are about, I can't wait for the rest of the Autumn Series!! Brill run, awesome landscape, excellent organisation and lovely people all round. Only serious issue was the bar running out of beer (for my partner not me of course), so let's get a barrel or two of Coniston Bluebird cracked open for October!! See you all there.
