Lakes in a Day is the iconic ultra event that happens at the end of October. Runners race from Caldbeck in the North to Cartmel in the south. The first section covers Blencathra and Helvellyn and is best done in fell or moutain shoes. There is also some route choice and navigation involved, especially when it comes to deciding whether to tackle Halls Fell Ridge on the descent of Blencathra. Rob will take you through the options and teach you the navigational skills to take the best advantage in this race.
- The 13 Valleys ultra is the latest long distance race through the Lake District. The course winds its way through the central lakes taking in many high level passes and distinct footpaths. Book now to be quided through this very unique and distinctive course.
