Gordale Scar, Ing Scar, Grizedales and Pikedaw Hill from Malham
8.5 miles and 1,500 ft
Route here
Another lovely run this morning, this time from Malham. It was a bit tricky climbing up Gordale waterfall one handed with Harry under the other arm mind. And the highland cattle, including one huge hairy arsed bull, were a 'just a little' intimidating on the way up towards Kirkby Fell, especially when a couple of them with their whopping great horns and packing serious tonnage started to canter right at us from about 5 yards away! They chickened out though when I told them to 'chill out' (try it, it works).

Ingleborough from Newby and back
7 miles and about 1,600 feet
Route here
I'm not usually a great fan of going up and down a mountain on the same track but this run is an exception. Its easily the best route up Ingleborough for having a nice and gentle gradient which is absolutely runnable all the way and the run back down is superb, mainly on grass with some muddy bits thrown in. I was back early from work today so it seemed a shame not to get out and about...
