Back buzzing from my run up Latrigg (368 m.), the cross-country runner in me doesn’t get out much these days. That was a new personal best time. Just the three photo stops. Mind you every incentive to keep running, there’s a brisk wind blowing the mist up there.
I chose the steep route up, the “runners’ path”, and was happy to find the stile at the forest edge has been repaired. Back down the main path - it’s a great opportunity to straddle run.
Not many people out up there in the driving drizzle but great to hear an encouraging shout of “Go for it Lad” and another of “Go for it Soldier”, both in strong Geordie voices.
