I wanted my last one to be a singular fell so it wasn't too much if people wanted to come along to celebrate with me.

      Wainwright says in his books that the cairn on the South of the wall, that you come to first is the Baystones summit, and what he classed as Wansfell. The one over the wall is a few metres lower. I’m doing this on Saturday as my 214th 😊 I followed your route for Grike, Crag Fell and Lank Rigg on Saturday - glorious weather and a great little run, so thank you for doing the video 😊

    There were some great views up there making the effort all the more worthwhile. Another Wainwright done, I admire your determination to do them plus running around Britain too, love the ambition and dedication that you show in your endeavours!

    Living close to where you are walking here I know how the so called Coastal Path often fades away and follows inland roads for long stretches as you can not get across several inland waterways. Wish you luck as you head for Barrow.

    Definitely include car camping. I do it quite a bit when it's just me, so seeing other spots that people find is great :-) I often use the cheaper campsites as well - the last one was Syke Farm at Buttermere - I just car camped in the car park by the river, and it has two pubs next door :-)

    • @runningbritain

      2 hours 54 mins. I'm a very slow plodder and walk the uphills so you will likely do it much faster!

    As you said when crossing those planks, 'kinell! A challenge but you rose to it with humour.Waterproof Gaffa tape will fix your trousers. I laughed when you mentioned the firing range: you looked like you'd already been shot at.Lol!

    You said you didn't enjoy road walking but i think you would have enjoyed it more than going through that swamp, i think the gods were looking down on you at the end when the footpath was closed off and you had to walk the road.

      @@runningbritain l think you have got to think positive or you wouldn't go back to walk in them conditions, I did Humphrey Head a Outlying Fell before Christmas near Kents Bank Station and had to walk round the headland to get to it and it was similar to what you walked through, not really enjoyable, why I mentioned it I think you will have to go through it when you get that far down.
