Th
e evening of July 6
th saw
the sudden
appearance of a colourful ten
t village in the
grounds of
the
Braithw
aite and
Thornthw
aite Institute in the N
orth-West
Lake
District.
The com
petitors and of·
ficials for the 7th
Annual S
aunders Lake·
land Mountain M
arathon were assem
bling. T
he hot, d
ry evening
was spent talking
and w
ondering about
the, as
yet
still secret, route and also, w
ith more concern,
worrying
about the
weather.
But
not, unusually for th
e Lake D
istrict, whether
it would be storm
y bu
t whether it w
ould be
too hot!
Fo
r the
marathon involves
traversing the hills on
a long, steep route as fast as possible w
hilst carrying gear for an
overnight cam
p. N
ot an activity for very h
ot w
eather. There are four classes
in th
e S
aunders M
ountain M
arathon (hereafter referred
to as
the SL
MM
for th
e sake of brevity!). Th
e KL

with no specified

ut
undoubtably the
toughest class, th
e Scafell Class 8
0 kilom
etres long, th
e Bow

0 kilom
etres long and th
e W

lass 5
0
kilometres
long. T
he W
ansfell is subdivided into two: th
e W
ansfell B
ackpackers o
n
which
boots m
ust be worn as it is intended for w
alkers not runners and th
e Wansfell F

recomm
ended fo

attempting
their first
2 day
event. A
s neither
my
companion
(Backpackers

ber C
hris A

nor m
yself had
ever d
on
e a
mountain
marathon
before w
e initially entered th
e Wansfell F

Class. T
he SLM

at the m
arshalls have to stay out, what-

ever the w

o days so who
better to d
o this th
an B

bers. Thirty-eight o
r so club mem
bers
gave u
p
their w
eekends to
be
marshalls and to
ensure the success o
f the
event, as club mem
bers have done every year th
e SLM
M has taken place. I w
ould like to
give my thanks to
them for pro
viding this essential bu
t sometim
es thankless task.
Saturday
the
7th
July
dawned
clear and
calm.
It was obviously going to
be hot; very, very hot. R
egistration began at 8.30 and here C
hris and I made a fateful
decision. W
e decided
to change classes
and move u
p into th
e 60
km long B
owfell
Class.
This
done w
e copied
down
the
checkpoint m
ap reference
for th
e two
days onto our m
aps (though w
e did
n't
yet know w
hich ones would apply to
ou
r class)
and other
essential inform
ation, such
as out-of-bounds
and dangerous
areas. All around o
ther shorts and T
-shirt clad com
petitors were doing th
e same. W
e had o
ur kit checked lthere is a com
pulsory kit list w
hich to a backpacker looks
very minim
al!) and I bought some suntan
lotion. F
ree w
ater bags were being pro
vided for those who h
adn
't brought any containers and w
e were w
arned that th
e becks w
ere either very low or dried up o
n
the
higher fells.
Impatient
to start w
e brow
sed am
ongst the gear o
n th
e Pete
Bland S
ports Stand
. I was surprised to
see entrants
buying gear at this
late stage,
especially those
who
were
buying and
donning running shoes.
Finally at 10.30 a.m
. the B
owfell C
lass, th
e largest
with
over 100 team
s in
it, began.
It w
as totally unlike
any oth
er start to
a mountain w
eekend I have ever experienced.
I'm
not used to setting o
ff running
for 2%
m
iles o
n
valley tracks
with
a light
load together
with a
few
hundred others\
Eventually w
e reached
the first checkpoint, and the only one w
e had been given so far, near T
hornthwaite.
Here
we
received th
e rest of o
ur check
points which w
e transferred to our m
aps and w
orked o
ut th
e order in which w
e w
ould do them. T
his was fairly obvious in
23
24
fact though there were a few
route deci· sions
to
be m
ade. T
hen w
e w
ere off
through th
e shady
conifir plantations
~eading for our first checkpoint w
hich, JU
st to cheer everybody up w
as the 27
91
' sum
mit
of
Grasm
oorl In
between
lay G
risedale Pike and the heat began to
tell during the steep and rough ascent o
f this peak from
Grisedale G
ill. The hillside w
as dotted w
ith lightly clad figures as people m
ade their ow
n w
ays u
p the
pathless slopes. S
oon the sum
mit w
as reached and w
e ran down to
Coledale H
ause and the
cooling bliss of G
asgale Gill. T
his set the pattern
for th
e day:
painful, energy·
sapping, incredibly ho
t and sweaty clim
bs u
p steep slopes follow
ed by bone-jarring, still
hot and sweaty runs dow
n. In the
heat running uphill
was just im
possible for m
ost people. Refreshed by th
e beck w
e continued
up
th
e broad
back o
f G
rasmoor.
Punching our
cards at
the checkpoint
I suddenly
recognised th
e m
arshall as
Ron
who
I'd met on m
any C
lub M
eets. He w
as wearing a fibre·pile
jacket as there was a breeze o
n th
e summ
it, o
r so he said. I was so h
ot I couldn't feel
it! A long, long run led dow
n to B
utterm
ere village via a checkpoint on
the side
of W
hiteless Pike.
For the first tim
e I began to
notice my surroundings. B
elow
the
jewels
of
Crum
mock
Water
and B
uttermere shone in the sunlight w
hilst across
the
valley lay
the
impressive
northern com
bes of the
Red
Pike·High
Pike ridge. Fading into th
e distance were
the yellow
-brown parched fells, dry and
dusty in the hazy air. The only trouble
with th
e view w
as that I could see across
to L
ing Com
b, high up in which lay th
e next checkpoint. A
pause
in B
uttermere
for a
pint o
f orange juice at the pub (and a free glass o
f applejuice from B
ob Saunders. T
hanks B
ob!) and
then all
too soon
we
were
sweating u
p through th
e fly-ridden, steep and
bouldery slopes of B
urtness Wood
before emerging onto th
e open heather fellside
and eventually
the
Ling
Com
b checkpoint.
By
now
the SL
MM
com
· petitors w
ere spread well o
ut and for the
rest of the day only ten o
r twenty w
ere in our sight. W
hether the rest w
ere behind
or ahead o
f us I had no idea. A thin line
of runners trickled
up the scree to
the m
ain ridge before setting off for th
e next checkpoints
which
lay on
the com
plex sum
mit o
f Haystacks. W
e took traversing paths below
the sum
mits o
f Red Pike and
High
Stile
intending to
clim
b no
t one foot m
ore than necessary. The occasional
half-hearted jog w
as managed for a few
yards b
ut w
e were now
resigned to trying
to
maintain a
fast walk except o
n the
downhill sections as it w
as far too hot to
run. Across E
nnerdale and Mosedale th
e S
cafells looked
superb, the
distinctive silhouette
of
the
ridge etched
harshly against the blue sky. F
rom H
igh Pike an unpleasant stone and scree slope, w
orsened and broken up by th
e feet of thousands o
f walkers, leads steeply dow
n to S
carth G
ap. A party o
f walkers w
ere just setting o
ff down this in a fairly gingerly m
anner w
hen half a dozen or so SLM
M runners
charged off dow
n it in a spray of stones
and soil. The w
alkers looked startled to
say the least! T
he checkpoints on Haystacks required a
bit of careful
navigation to locate,
the first tim
e this had been necessary. We m
et one runner w
ho'd overshot the first one
coming back to
it cursing his error. From
H
aystacks only one checkpoint remained.
Unfortunately it w
as on
the far side o
f th
e Glaram
ara ridge so to reach it we had
to
cross th
e slopes
of
Grey
Knotts,
descend to S
eathwaite then clim
b all the w
ay back up
again, two thousand feet o
f ascent at the end o
f a long tiring day, a real
sting in
the tail and
a climb th
at finished m
any entrants hopes of com
plet· ing
the
SLM
M.
Seathw
aite w
as easily
reached by a run down th
e 'made' path
by S
our M
ilk G
ill b
ut
the clim
b up
Glaram
ara on the rough path by H
ind Gill
was
the most tiring
ascent I think I've
ever done. Three tim
es I had to stop and
rest feeling
totally exhausted. T
he sun w
as on ou
r backs now and I could feel it
like a sledgehamm
er thumping the back
of m
y head. Every step w
as an effort and m
y legs felt like lead. It took an act o
f w
illpower to
keep going. I did so simply
because I w
as so close to the overnight cam
p that I d
idn
't want to lose the results
~
of the rest o
f the days effort by giving up
now. O
ther runners (a ludicrous descrip· tion
now as a desperately slow
stagger w
as all anyone could manage, I rem
ember
thinking that if this w
as the speed of the
runners what w
ere the backpackers doing? C
rawling?) w
ere grimly forcing th
eir way
upwards
occasionally abandoning
the
effort to
collapse
on
th
e hillside. One
toppled slowly over sidew
ays in front of
me.
As
I passed, totally wrapped up in
my
own attem
pts to keep going, I saw
him
staring blankly up into the sky. Then
a few m
inutes later he charged past me
only to sit dow
n abruptly again after a few
yards. T
his time w
hen I passed him
he spoke. "I thought this was the to
p" he
said, flatly and hopelessly. Not w
anting to
expend any effort by speaking I simply
pointed ahead to
figures on
the gentle
slopes above us. I meant to
indicate that
we w
ere almost there. W
hen I did arrive on the col betw
een Glaram
ara and Com
b H
ead I
sat and
waited
for Chris.
Few
people w
ere staying together in their pairs now
as it was only possible to
continue by going at ones ow
n pace. At tim
es this led
to frustration
and a few
arguments
occurred and it looked as though a few
friendships were under threat.
But just over the ridge lay th
e last check· point of the first day from
where it w
as dow
nhill to the overnight camp. T
he pair at th
e checkpoint apologised for seeming
too cheerful! A
pparently other entrants had
complained. P
ersonally I needed all th
e morale boosting I could get. M
iserable m
arshalls would hardly have helped keep
me going. A
fter a final steep downhill run
a walk along langstrath saw
us reach the
overnight camp site w
here we soon had
the ten
t pitched and the stove lit. The site
was w
ell organised,
the highpoint being the
cold drinks
on sale,
especially the
pints of m
ilk. I was pleased at how
quickly I recovered from
the exertions o
f the day.
People w
ere arriving all the tim
e and even after
dark torch
lights could
be seen com
ing down th
e valley. Score cards w
ere displayed and I read th
at we had com
e in 4
9th
in our class in a time o
f 10 hours and 32 m
inutes. T~leaders had taken 7
hours 55
minutes.V
vo
rked ou
t that w
e
had w
alked/run about
25
m
iles and
climbed
around 14,000'. T
he next day
w
ould be easier for the routes had been
planned so that 2
/3 of the w
ay was com
pleted
on th
e first day so that people
could finish early on
the S
unday. It was
good to know
that the hardest part w
as over. T
he camp site seem
ed less full than
the
one at
Braithw
aite and this impressio
n
was correct for it turned o
ut th
at many
teams had returned to
Braithw
aite on
the
Saturday evening
and that several m
ore had failed to
complete the first day and
had spent the night o
ut on th
e fells. So it w
as a much sm
aller group that assem
bled for th
e 8.30 a.m. start o
n S
unday. After a
good night's sleep I felt fine and neither C
hris o
r I
ever considered
giving up.
Another m
ass start gave a two m
ile or so
run to L
ongthwaite in B
orrowdale w
here w
e received our checkpoints. Due to
the slow
times of th
e first day, caused by the heat, tw
o checkpoints had been deleted from
ou
r itinery. There w
ere several pas· sible routes and people w
ere haring off in all
directions. W
e chose to
go through Johnny's W
ood to S
eatoller and then take the road to
the top o
f Honister Pass. T
he first
checkpoint w
as in
Little
Dale
between
Hindscarth
and R
obinson. T
o get
there involved clim
bing D
ale H
ead. S
tarting off in Johnny's W
ood I was stung
by a w
asp on the back o
f the leg! Initially
this sw
elled up and
hurt bu
t luckily it soon eased o
ff. The pain kept m
e going though as it w
as lessened by running. T
he day was again very h
ot and although
I felt fine I noticed I w
as going slower
than on
the previous day. A
fter descending to
the Little D
ale checkpoint it was
necessary to climb back up and cross th
e shoulder o
f Robinson for the next check·
point was in the valley o
f Sail Beck. H
ere th
e m
arshall pointed
ou
t th
at all
the
checkpoints were due to
close soon. He
had already packed his rucksack and was
ready to depart. It w
as a grim group o
f six o
r so people who began th
e climb up
the side
of Scar C
raggs heading for the
Birkthw
aite B
eck checkpoint.
To
fail now
on the last section w
ould have been soul destroying.
From
the top
of L
ong
2
26
Com
b we w
ere relieved
to see th
at the
tents of the checkpoint w
ere still there. A
fast run down scree and grass soon had
us there to learn from
the marshalls th
at they w
ere staying open longer as every· one w
as taking longer than usual and that
the
last checkpoint was unm
anned. To
reach it m
eant a long and awkw
ard rising traverse
over th
e steep,
deep heather
covered side of O
uter Side to
Low
Moss
before descending
from
Barrow
D
oor dow
n B
arrow B
eck to
the w
ell hidden
checkpoint. Once it w
as located w
e re· turned
to
Barrow
D
oor, ran
down
to
Stonycroft G
ill and began the w
alk back to
B
raithwaite.
We
arrived after a total
time o
f 17
hours and two m
inutes for the
two days and w
ere placed 46th. Over half
the com
petitors had given up
due to th
e w
eather. The feeling o
f relief and triumph
on finishing was overw
helming. H
owever
I could not stay long
as I w
as due to
catch a train north to
travel overnight to
Achnashellach and th
e North-W
est High·
lands from
w
here th
e next
morning
I w
ould set out, after a night on
the train,
to w
alk to T
orridon. M
ountain Marathons are unique events. I
know o
f nothing else like them. A
nd this year th
e weather for th
e SLM
M w
as exceptionally hot.
Even
so I enjoyed th
e event
and only during th
e nightmarish
ascent of G
laramara did I w
onder what I
was doing there and begin to d
ou
bt m
y sanity.
I found
it very interesting
and stim
ulating to see if I could com
plete the course,
find all
the checkpoints and get m
y pack weight dow
n to an acceptable
level. In the event it w
eighed 141bs (con· tents I ist below
), the lightest by far I've
ever carried for a weekend! It show
s what
you can do
if you know you're going to
have to
run with your pack I T
he organisa
tion of
the SL
MM
w
as very good and credit m
ust go to B
ob Saunders and his
staff, K
en L

and th
e K
LE
TS
personnel and o
f course Tom
Pape and
the marshalls o
f the B
ackpackers Club,
not forgetting Eric w
ho I was pleased to
see there. I w
ould recomm
end the event
to any backpackers w
ho want to
have a go at really pushing them
selves and test· ing
their navigation, stamina and ability
>
to
reduce their
pack weight.
Don't all
enter though or there'll be no-one left to
m
arshall th
e 1985
Saunders
Lakeland
Mountain M
arathon! W
e each
wore
running shorts,
Rohan
Dunova C
ool T-shirts and thin socks and I
wore a R
ohan Dunova B
andana as a sweat
band whilst C
hris w
ore a white sunhat.
We also each carried m
aps, compasses and
whistles, torches, m
atches and basic first aid
items.
I to
ok
an O
lympus X
A for
photography. Our food consisted of trail
mix and various fruit and granola bars for
the
days and
two
packets o
f K
ellogs N
oodles for the evening meal plus coffee,
sugar and dried
milk.
Breakfast
on the
Sunday consisted o
f 4oz muesli each. W
e to
ok
water bottles for use o
n th
e hill and a
Field &
T
rek Water B
ag for cam
p. I m
ust have drunk several gallons each day at least. T
he gear all worked b
ut there are changes
I would m
ake. Lighter w
aterproofs would
be useful (e.g. the T
roll Marathon S
uit). It is com
pulsory to carry them
. I would
have preferred a Marathon sac like C
hris' as it has a chest strap and is lighter and better balanced than th
e Brasher B
ag. If th
e weather had been bad I w
ould prob· ably
have taken som
ething heavier than th
e Jekyll for warm
wear. O
therwise I w
as happy w
ith our selection though a night o
f heavy rain could have caused conden· sation problem
s in the tent.
