9.16 miles, 2,598 feet, 2 hours 11 minutes, Red Screes via Scandale. Nine others on the fell. Overcast - perfect running temperature. Very quiet going through town.
I agree re the town being quiet. I was through last week visiting my Mother and had a short run. The last time I saw Ambleside like this was probably in the 1960s. (Apart from the many closed shops, the vast majority of which simply didn't exist back then).
