I've not bothered to waste my time clicking on the MWIS link to see what it might say. However, it was so "grim" that I ran as far as Grisedale Tarn in shorts. I put my leggins on there, but I could have taken them off again in Patterdale if I could have been bothered to stop.The weather forecast is still pretty grim:

I especially like the bit saying "Walking or any mobility very difficult from fairly low levels upwards in morning"
I didn't notice any ferocious gusts and the wind speed possibly maxed out at 30 ish mph? "Mobility very difficult from fairly low levels"? Nope. OK, I was shuffling a bit after 28 miles.
It was wet though, I'll have to admit that.
So, glad I didn't die today, as the above wouldn't have made such a catchy epitaph...
But it was a great day out in the hills. And Joe's special Carrot soup at the end was fantastic.
