Fell running with Claire

It was lovely day in the Lakes - spring is certainly here with some VERY small baa lambs in the fields as we drove via Greystoke to Mungrisedale. We walked/jogged up the path that winds round the side of The Tongue before stopping for a lovely sandwich - it was nice and warm in the sun. Fully refreshed we climbed onto the plateau before heading up to Bowscale Fell. From there the running started...onto the next top and then all the way down the ridge - leading to a brutally steep descent into Mungrisedale; your thighs get a serious workout here - far betting than back squats!!

Energy levels still feel low - however being out in the sunshine definetly helps - looks like it will a long road back to anything approaching full fitness though....on the plus side its now 7.30pm and its still totally light in North Cumbria; the clocks have changed and after work potential for running/cycling has increased.
