Yes… a little indulgent. Well, maybe very indulgent for Gary to share his 5 & 2 Valleys experience, but he’s doing it anyway. Nearly fifty of the most beautiful miles this country has to offer, taking in epic summits, dreamy trails, and sharing it all with thousands of like minded runners.
The 13 Valleys and the Lake District National Park did not disappoint. It’s a firm favourite of the podcast, and judging by the sheer number of runners, families, and friends who descended on Keswick, it’s clearly a favourite of the trail running community too.
Big love and thanks to everyone who helped put on an amazing weekend of running.
Thanks E & G xx
