That’s why the LL 100 / 50 are reasonably close together price wise too - it’s the huge number of coaches needed to transport the 50 runners up to Dalemain. Coach hire is really high at the minute. lol at fish and chips 🤣🤣

I can't quite believe I've got all this outside the front door, I guess it's something that those of you who live with the fells on your doorstep know all too well. I shall keep pinching myself.

Loving the local hills at the moment. Ran through Youlgreave on Thurs as part of a club run. We're currently only signed up for the village race this year as the hills are still a bit scary, but plan on some proper fell races next year.
