This is the audio from a Live Stream video interview I did on April 12th during lockdown with author David Lintern regarding his recent Cicerone Press release The Big Rounds by David Lintern.
A guide to Britain’s three most challenging long distance mountain rounds in the Lake District, Snowdonia and Lochaber. Not just for the fell runner, but the day walker and backpacker too.
In it David not only covers the practicalities of tackling the Bob Graham Round, the Paddy Buckley Round and the Charlie Ramsay Round, but also the resources you will find nearby it you want to take a more measured approach.
The book is great and even though you may not be someone who wants to complete any of them in one go, using it you will be able to take bite sized chunks out of the routes and appreciate the visual glory.
At the same time you might also appreciate just how mad these Fell Runners can be to attempt them within 24 hours.
