jacdaw Aug 2015 12:16pm, 8 Aug 2015 1426 posts	0 jacdaw Did anybody do the Ennerdale 50K, or 25K last year? If so, was it any good? I'm looking for an alternative (in October) to the Jedburgh Ultra which seems to have sold out.

Liliaicha Aug 2015 3:54pm, 8 Aug 2015 9362 posts	0 Liliaicha Hi jackdaw, I did the 50k last year and really enjoyed it, although I found the trail really tough. I think you're from around there somewhere (mentioned on another thread) so are probably used to that kind of terrain
Liliaicha Aug 2015 3:55pm, 8 Aug 2015 9363 posts	0 Liliaicha It's not particularly hilly though.
jacdaw Aug 2015 5:25pm, 8 Aug 2015 1429 posts	0 jacdaw Thanks liliaicha, I don't mind rough ground, and wouldn't mind flat(tish) for a change.

jacdaw Aug 2015 10:07pm, 8 Aug 2015 1432 posts	0 jacdaw Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted. Really very tempted to do it now.
Loz Aug 2015 11:43pm, 11 Aug 2015 349 posts	0 Loz I did the 25k a couple of years ago. Very nice route and flat for the lakes. There is one technical bit on the far side of the lake which was a bit rough but not too long. Good event
Velociraptor Aug 2015 11:51pm, 11 Aug 2015 32730 posts	0 Velociraptor Yup, I did the 25km last year. The course starts off smooth and easy on good trails, then you're sent on to singletrack and teetering over the rocks at water's edge. Although it's flat, that technical section slowed me up. But it's quite fun, and reasonable value mile for mile. I was glad not to be doing another lap.

Got something to say?
