    But if it was High Street the photo would have had to be taken before 1994, when the Kentmere race was held around Easter. That doesn't look like a July photo.

    Harv & Anthonykay: It is indeed High Street, Just a hundred yards or so north of the trig point. I'm heading north and the view obviously west towards the Helvellyn range.

    Photo was taken early april at around 7:30am. Race is the Lakes Mountain 42 which starts at Askham > High Street > Patterdale > Grisedale Hause > Thirlmere > Helvellyn > White Side > Patterdale > Place Fell > Askham.


    Llani: That was a Dark Peak vest... in my early days i was equidistant from DPFR and Mercia, so i chose the nicest vest!! Then realised if i wanted to improve i actually needed to train regularly with a local club.

    View from top of Bla Bheinn: Cuillins on the left, Ruadh Stac and Marsco on the right, Loch an Athain front centre. Autocorrect reckons that Marsco should be Marco!

    Is that a philosophical question? Do we need a thread called "why are we here?"

    Reminds me of the Calvin and Hobbes cartoon.

    Looking out to the Isle of Man from somewhere in the western Lake District? Is that Devoke Water just left of centre?
