Joss Naylor to run Lake District Fells

Tomorrow (Saturday 25th June), 80 year old sheep farmer and legendary fell runner Joss Naylor MBE will be running from Caldbeck to Wasdale in the Lake District – a route of over 30 miles. He’s running in memory of his father, Joe Naylor, also a sheep farmer who was born in Caldbeck and moved to Wasdale in 1927. The run sees Joss mark his own 80th birthday as well as being a fundraiser for a charity he has supported for many years. The Cumbrian based Youth Charity, Brathay Trust, work with some of the most disadvantaged children & young people in the UK.
