Keswick to Barrow - Saturday 7th May 2011

Set off to Elterwater in camper last night - parked up just a thunder storm started, some impressive lightning !

An early start this morning, up just after 5 and set-off at 6 to run, in reverse, until I bump into Helm runner. Make it a mile or so past Grasmere and then run as far as Coniston to support - a good run, the rain clears, it's humid and still, a good atmosphere.

Turn back at Coniston, soon get very tired of runners and marshalls telling me I'm going the wrong way ! After a while, decide to avoid eye contact - this seems to work.

Back at camper by 8.30, 17 miles run but small in comparison to those taking part; need breakfast so head to Booths, Windermere for coffee and a sausage bap - good stuff :-)
