Well, we started off from the car park at the foot of Snowdon at 9:22, after a hearty breakfast at the Little Chef attached to our Travel Lodge hotel.
Of the two possible routes, we had chosen the Pyg Trail over the Miners track. It is more of a steady climb and a little shorter, too. The track was quite narrow, making it awkward to walk two abreast for most of the way. There were quite a lot of other people doing the same route - some plodding up for charity, some whizzing by in running vests with numbers pinned on their shorts.
The weather forecasters didn't disappoint us. It rained most of the way up and down. The only respite was when we were walking in fog.
We were up to the summit in 1:50 and back down only 3:20 after starting off.
Let's hope the views are better from Scafell Pike.
