He also went and ran in the under 14s fell race with a respectable 6th place overall and 5th boy in a good field of runners.
Once I had finished the registration I went up on the fell side to capture the action in the senior guides race. This always attracts both top class fell runners and novices due to its iconic nature. I videoed them climbing to the first wall and then dashed over to get them crossing the hurdle:
Roll on Grasmere Sports 2020!
