Cathy & Wayne are joined by Scott Umpleby from The Brathay Trust, event organisers of the fantastic Ambleside Trail 25 & 50k races.
Join them as they discuss how this event began, how a full Lakeland breakfast and a frittata were highlights the first year and what delectable comestibles will be on offer this year....
Offering not just breathtaking views, great trails and incredible checkpoints The Ambleside Trail 25 & 50k events also raise vital funds for the work Brathay do with young people in Cumbria and Yorkshire, improving their life chances and mental health.
There is, as always, plenty of talk about kit: what to use, how to choose and favourite items as well as food, trails and where to find information for folks new to trail running.
