A cold snowy run of 13-14km.
Route: Leaving the car by the side of the road just before the Waterfoot factory entrance and running along the road taking the Green Quarter turning and then along the road towards Brockstones and Hallow Bank and then descending to the valley floor to Overend where the road becomes a stony track to Tongue House. Then by a narrow grassy path, very muddy after the wet winter but partially frozen to reach the foot bridge just south of Kentmere Reservoir. Back along the bridleway, first down hill and then rising above Hartrigg, descending and rising again just before Kentmere. Then back along the road to the car.
Conditions: Low cloud and snow falling with a cool wind into our faces on the return.
Pub: Hawkshead Brewery for Hawkshead Red and WPA.
