Lap of the Lakes COMPLETER!

Helen started the challenge in October '16 and ran the 11.5 miles around Bassenthwaite (the only actual lake in the Lake District!) with Trev and Tom on 18th June '17 before moving to Australia.

Thanks for the support Trev, Tom & Luna bean!

Sarah's first 'lake' - Buttermere (and a trip to the Rannerdale bluebells). One down..... 16 to go! :D
