The Lakeland 100

Regular visitors of the Nottingham store will have heard about an event called The Beast and possibly the event organiser Gaynor Prior.  Well Gaynor recently took part in the Lakeland 100 and broke the womens record for that race!! Gaynor is a valued friend of U&R and we like to feel we helped her on her way cos she was powered by U&R (Nottingham) purchases (shoes, OMM waistpack, NRG tops, base layers)..... the reality is however she did it all by her self.... but let her tell it in her own words.

"I entered the L100 in January after a laughable visit to the Lakes. After Caesars Camp 100 last year I'd decided that I was heading for the hills and going to try for a Bob Graham, no matter how long it took. So after a skin full in the pub in Threlkeld, sleeping on an air bed in the back of my 4x4 (which is interesting if one of you is built like a brick outhouse and the other one weighs 8 stone), Dave and Iread on....

Well done Gaynor from ALL at Up & Running
