      Thank you ☺️ Oh my goodness it's incredibly beautiful! There's an awesome approx 5 mile loop walk that takes in Janet's Foss (waterfall) Goredale Scar (epic waterfall) and Malham Cove. Lots of people think it's the best walk in Yorkshire so definitely one to add to the list if you're ever in the area 😍 the race route took in a little of that walk and Malham Cove is incredible however you look at it! 😃

    Just catching up on all your old videos! This was great as you ran passed my village (Carleton-in-Craven) and I walk a lot in the fields around Cononley and along the canal at Skipton and, now I've started running, I also run along the towpath - I'm not up to a marathon or ultra marathon just yet though!

      This run reminds me of the Beachy Head marathon which I have run twice before and running again in October. I can recommend it to you Nicola, it's not easy but views are a-ma-zing. Totally worth the climbs. They have an ultra also this year for the first time.

      5 in 5 days!!! Chuffin' hell 🤪🤪🤪. Good luck with those marathons, look forward to your vlogs from those runs. They should be very interesting. Oh looked up the River Aire ultra for this year and it clashes with a motorcycle ride-out to Leicestershire I am organising. (Easter Saturday) ah well 2023 possibly if our planned trip to Phaphos for the marathon in March 2023 doesn't pan out.
