Helvellyn 2: The Sequel

To cap off my training weekend, I woke up tired but determined to get more miles under my belt.  I headed to the lakes to summit Helvellyn, a hike I did a couple of months ago.  Much to my own annoyance, I forgot to take my jacket with me, and ended up very glad it didn't rain at all!

It took 5 hours in total but I wanted to do 6 hours in total so did another hour hike when I got back to good old Standish.  It was definitely difficult to wake up this morning after hiking yesterday, but feel chuffed after completing these last two days.  A well earned rest now!
