Run around Derwentwater

Our second run of the weekend was around Derwentwater, the lake in Keswick. 

The day started out really nice!  We even had aspirations of coming back in the afternoon for some kayaking.

Unfortunately, this was the last time I was dry.  The rain came in and was a solid downpour that didn't let up for an hour. 

We ran about 10 miles again around the lake.  Despite the rain, it was a fantastic run!  Not as majestic as the first day, but also not as much straight uphill!  Some sections were through the trees along the lakeside and other parts were on raised platforms through the marsh at the far end of the lake.  We found a lovely tea shop when we finished for some warm drinks and toasty sandwiches.  Another successful day!
