Great weekend at the Achille Ratti hut in Great Langdale, superb location and a warm welcome made for an excellent weekend. Saturday night supper with the Bowland crowd in the Wainwright who were on their club camping weekend. Having had my share of camping this year I didn’t envy them one bit as the weather turned excessively wet overnight and into Sunday, resulting in an early departure for us.

Random stretches before the race!
Click to enlarge to see the runners climbing. Even before the heavy rain on Saturday night, the ground was saturated which may have accounted for an extremely bad fall for one unlucky runner. MRT stretchered the casualty with a broken fib and tib, down to the 3 Shires Stone where he was helicoptered to Lancaster for surgery.
As I trotted up to the three shires stone, a couple of vintage autos were making their way up Wrynose without too much difficulty
Rather more wine consumed for me than miles run – but hey! More piccies here.
Planning UTUP Tuesday and Saturday this week if anyone around.
