CumbriAndy Sep 2018 9:55am, 21 Sep 2018 1,344 posts	0 CumbriAndy See you in Coniston AL - the weather will be fine for running (sunburn not particularly likely though) and the rain from yesterday will mostly have run off the trails by tomorrow leaving just mud behind. I'm mildly concerned about the car parking field - I expect there'll be a note on the website or fb page later if there's any issue we can't resolve with a bit of imagination in the morning (I'm there from 7am)
Autumnleaves Sep 2018 10:44am, 21 Sep 2018 12,809 posts	0 Autumnleaves That is a good point! Last time we were staying close enough to walk but this time we will have to drive... Looking forward to it though - but will definitely pack the mudclaws!
R4R Oct 2018 2:09pm, 17 Oct 2018 2,888 posts	0 R4R Will be up in Keswick in a few weeks and will probably do parkrun. I know where the course goes, but where do you scan in? In the leisure centre?

R4R Oct 2018 2:44pm, 17 Oct 2018 2,889 posts	0 R4R Thanks V'rap. Staying about a mile from the start, so it would be rude not to do it. It's a few weeks off yet, but I thought if I didn't ask now, I'd forget to ask nearer the date.

Somewhere you can confidently ask "which is the best chip shop in Keswick?" and expect an intelligent reply.

Lots of experience and good advice available here, from which B & B or YHA to the best fell for Grandma to climb :-)
