It was the Sedbergh Hills fell race today and at 22.5km with 1850m ascent it was a little beyond me (for now). So, joining the Glossopdale gang in a support role I drove a few of us up there then headed out for my own little run. The rain had cleared up, though it was a tad windy on the tops. I ran nearly 18km with 1028m ascent, and was out for about 2hrs 45mins. Pretty decent, though it involved a stop to watch the race pass on Arrant Haw, and a few other stops to chat with other runners just out enjoying the day but not racing. Here's a few photos I took:
