Lakeland Trails Ullswater - the boats are unable to sail
After the huge amount of rain this week, we have been glued to the Ullswater water levels and unfortunately, they have not dropped sufficiently for our boat to sail (you may see one on the lake which is the only one that can operate at the current level and has to provide the scheduled services).
Fear not though, we have a contingency plan which will involve adapted routes which take in much of the same terrain by the lake, but start and finish at our event centre in Glenridding.
We will have one start at 10.30am for ALL 10k runners.
We will have one start at 1.00pm for ALL 14k runners
As long as you arrive at least 45 minutes before, you can swap from the 14k to the 10k.
NB - the 14k has a steep climb towards the end.
ESSENTIAL KIT!
Given the weather, it is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL that you carry the following kit on your run: hat/Buff, gloves, waterproof jacket, long leggings or overtrousers. Please also bring plenty of warm clothes for before and after your run - we will have a bag drop facility by the event marquee.
