UTLD 50 Recce - Sunday 19th February 2012

I had planned to run the 'Golden Pearl' race at Reston Scar but had concerns.....only ran 6 miles last weekend at Carnethy and have the HPM looming, also it was a stunning day !

So decide to run from Ambleside to Coniston on the last 16 miles of the Ultra Tour Lake District 50/100 route. It is a great route and the weather stunning; i make good progress and consider running back the same way; however, opt to follow the Cumbria Way as far as Skelwith and then back over the shoulder of Loughrigg; this is a good choice, some great paths and visit Tarn Hows, as do thousands of others !

Out for about 5 hours and cover 25 miles - this is more like it.
