Excellent video mate, absolutely brilliant race/route/neck of the woods. Hats off to you for doing it 2 days before Wasdale. Have a great race this weekend, it is a classic 🦾👍
Another ace vid, John. I do love how you have no script and do whatever suits :) Love Kentmere HS and yeah, parking is a bugger. If you want to extend it to about 18 miles, start from Staveley & follow the bridleway all the way to Kentmere. Takes a bit of extra planning but it's totally worth it for a great day out :)
Superb. Never done this horseshoe before mate, I’ve never explored Kentmere. Thinking this may be the next wild camp - just the parking puts me off. Looks quite runnable, even for slobs like me ⛰️
Another great vid John. A lovely Horseshoe - agree with you. Stretch from Ill bell to High st is awesome (agree - worth a trip to Thornthwaite for the cairn). I think I know what my next run will be
Great vid sir! Hiked the "classic" route last year in the snow, epic day out, will have to come and run it one day now. Seems like there's quite a few little differences with the fell race route compared to the hiling route which hits all the tops, might just be my memory though!
Brill photography as usual John.well done on that. Especially since you must have to keep turning back on yourself to collect the camera.👍 Two suggestions though fella. When you point out things "there" "over there" "that big lump". I have no idea what you're pointing to or looking at exactly. So I'm absolutely none the wiser what you mean. Could you arrow it or circle it in the edit? That would be helpful.👍 Also ,I'd like to let the kids watch these but there's just too much unexpected swearing sometimes. Any chance of a swear warning in advance or toning it down to get a few younger viewers interested 👍 Cheers keep up the great running.
Hi Phill glad you’re liking the vids. Sure I’ll see what I can do in the edit ref lumps. Also, you’re not the first to mention the expletives. I’ll put my filter on for up coming videos 😉 take care 🤘🏻
Brilliant race. Let’s get things straight though, it absolutely wasn’t a case of ‘bombing it down’ off Kentmere Pike. Once you go over a style you missed the bit we would be down through a river 😂😂😂
@@SD-ou3pt haha High St has to be run. Do you know who the 76 year old guy who was a couple minutes behind us is? Outstanding! Hope I’m still going at that age 👌🏻
@@lakelandtrailrunner wow there are some legends. Anyway make sure you get out of your comfort zone and come down to the Manchester area for some of our mental races
Beautifully done recce, loved the details and the interesting ramblings, John.

Another great vid, right as I’m having a beer, fish and chips 🤷♂️😅 making me feel lazy!
Haha beer, fish & chips sounds awesome mate!

Make the effort mate, there’s a cool cave up there too, but yeah the parking sitch is a pain.
Love it, thanks for sharing your ramblings 😊 I passed through Kentmere yesterday on a L50 recce.
Thanks man I appreciate that. Good luck on the L50! 🤘🏻

Glad you enjoyed it mate, have a good run 👌🏻
Good to see you finished wasdale John. I couldn't enter in the end but doing old crown round in a few weeks
Ah nice one I’m running the Old Crown too I’ll see you there 🤘🏻🙂

Yes you miss out a few summits on the race route 🤘🏻

Haha that last bit from the style to the gate was a bit tricky I definitely failed to give it enough credit! Glad you had a good race 👌🏻🙂
@@lakelandtrailrunner finished 2.30 just 90 seconds behind you lad. If I had bombed it up high street better I might have beat you 😂
