Running The Lakeland Eight Hundreds - An Ultra Challenge for the Next Generation?
Fellrunner Norman Hadley sketches out a new, logically metric Lake District challenge route that only the very best could do in a day. Do you fancy being the first? Or perhaps you'd prefer to backpack it over several days...?

It's an interesting round some great running. I had a massive explosion at Buttermere this summer while attempting it. Went far too fast in hot weather on already tired legs from two weeks in Scotland. Daft idea, but I had a lot of time to think while walking back on the road to Keswick :)
I hadn't heard of this but it looks great! On my list for next time I can make it up to the Lakes.
Enjoyed the photography and interview. The music not so much - who makes that stuff?
