2025 Winter Webinar: Natalie Hawkrigg, "Slack seas to summit screes"
2025-01-25 20:00 - 21:00 (Europe/London)
As a GP based in north Cumbria, Natalie is well placed to not only access the fells of the Lake District but also the many lakes and tarns too. In 2023 she completed her long held ambition to tick off the UK's three most famous swim / run adventures - Frog Graham Round, Puddle Buckley Round and the Ring of Stirling. Join us to find out about the challenges encountered on these long adventures and how Natalie overcame them.
A certificate of attendance will be provided to those who complete the feedback questionnaire. This will be FREE to BMMS members and £3 to non members.
The event will take place on Microsoft Teams and login details will be sent out 1 week and 24 hours before the webinar.
Places can be reserved here.
