The fells and valleys of the Lakes are a playground for the adventurous runner – this is the home of many classic fell races, and of course the legendary Bob Graham Round. In this book, author Helen Mort has collected together many of her favourite Lakeland runs, from low-lying and scenic lakeside cruises, to steep mountain climbs and remote and wild enchainments. Discover Grasmere, pick your way along the Haystacks ridge, explore Grisedale or run around Lakeland icons, such as Buttermere and Ennerdale Water. More experienced runners can challenge themselves on bigger and longer excursions to Fairfield and above Troutbeck.
Features clear and easy-to-use Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 maps, easy-to-follow directions, details of distance and timings, refreshment stops and local knowledge, and a detailed appendix.
Helen Mort is a writer, trail runner and climber who lives in Sheffield.
She has been running since the age of 12, competing on the track,
roads and fells over every distance from steeplechase to the marathon.
Helen has represented Yorkshire for cross-country. In 2015, she ran
her first sub-three-hour marathon: a success she attributes to years
of trail running in Derbyshire and the Lake District, where she was
a proud member of Ambleside AC.
