Navigation Training - Lake District











Running going OK I suppose. Managed over 80miles in January despite a cold & snowy days. My diary is getting stuffed full of challenges. I had better be fit & thin by the end of the year!!!
29 January I went up to the lake district on a "Navigation Training" weekend that was being run by one of the guys from the MdS forums. Myself & 8 blokes I had never met in a bunk house in the middle of nowhere! Lucky girl I hear you all say!!!
Could have been but with temperatures of -2.5 deg, no hot water, no shower, no heating (bar a couple of small portable rads Tintin brought), I was not looking my best! As you will see, in every photo, I have no make-up, woolly tea cosy on my head & the pilsbury doughboy outfit! Nice!! Still, I was warm out on the hills. All good fun & lots of alcholic fuel each evening. I think I can now compass read! Well I hope so anyway!!!
