Old Counties Tops - 17 May 2014

In 1972, the monolithic county of Cumbria came into being, replacing the historic counties of Cumberland, Westmorland & Lancashire which previously had subdivided the Lakes.  The highest peaks in those old counties were Sca Fell Pike, Hellvellyn and Coniston Old Man, respectively.  This race visits the highest points in those old counties, a route that covers a distance of 37 miles.  The race is run in pairs. We had an all Barlick team of Sam Wadsworth & Lucas Payne, whilst Barlicker Andy Hirst ran with Kirsty Hall of Wharfedale.  Just over a minute separated these two pairs, although they each ran their own separate races.

41 Andy Hirst / Kirsty Hall 9:48:08
43 Sam Wadsworth / Lucas Payne 9:49:19
