Self-supported effort on the Cumbria Way. Ran North to South as live near Ulverston so wanted to run home! Planned to do Friday 20th but with stormy weather postponed to the Saturday and weather couldn’t of been kinder - claggy up on High Pike but aside from that good visibility and low winds. Hard going underfoot in the dark with it being October lost the sun at 6:30pm so was challenging navigating alone in the pitch black for so long. Stopped in Caldbeck, Keswick, Rosthwaite and Coniston for water, carried my own food. Great route and harder than I thought being self reliant but a good challenge and adventure out in the fells - views over Borrowdale valley were beaut!
