A much shorter distance travelled today at 8.65 miles, but I can report that it was 'a real slog .. very rough and slippery under foot'.
The weather was not too kind either - raining and windy - although there does seem to have been one break in the clouds to snatch this photo looking into Borrowdale from Greenup Edge.
Today's stage was from Rosthwaite to Grasmere. Wainwright's description of the beginning of this stage starts with 'the first bewitching mile, every step a joy'. I am not sure whether our walking team would agree with that!
Hopefully the weather tomorrow will be kinder - dry and not too hot.
