I help a friend who is training for the London Marathon. 20 miles is her objective, I'm planning the route and not allowed any serious off-road !
The forecast is rubbish but surprisingly we run most of the way in the dry, just the last few miles in the rain. So from Troutbeck, up into Troutbeck, Low Wood, Waterhead, Brathay, Drunken Duck (first water stop - thanks to Matt, Lucy & Anna), then to Tarn How's and an 'off-road loop' (which I get away with), High Cross, more off-road in Grizedale, down to Monk Coniston (16 miles) and then a loop towards Tilberthwaite, to finish in Coniston....20.25 miles and 3:15.
Well done Emma, should be on for a sub 4hr London, considerably flatter than my route !!
