Bob Graham Leg 1 recee

My friend B that I know from my undregrad course has been living in the lakes for a year and I haven't taken enough advantage of this. He is hesitantly planning on doing a Bob Graham attempt next year so since we both had a free weekend it was about time to recce leg 1.

Perfect day for it, not too hot but clear sky. Wasn't sure how long it would take us so packed a healthy amount of food. I made sure I ran all the climbs (excecpt the steep boggy bit up to Mungrisdale Common before Blencathra). 

Once down that steep ridge pictured here, we had so much time before his girfriend needing picking up from Keswick that we chose to run back to Keswick anyway. Great day out and keen for some more.
