The route covers my local trails I've spent far too much time on recently. The weather forecast looked good so thought I'd pop out for a lap. I carried my kit and regretted the hat and gloves 5 miles in as it heated up, I didn't use them once! Plenty of places to top up water on the west side but I did carry a fair amount. Things went well until Red Screes where I took 5 minutes at the bottom to sort kit out. I was low on water and as wet as the ground was I wasn't drinking bog water so focused on getting to High Street steady and enjoyed a steady descent back to the finish. A great route for getting out on your own
