Forty-two summits, around 8,000 metres of climbing and a clock that starts and stops at the Moot Hall in Keswick. The Bob Graham Round is the classic test of the Lake District fells, and for Salomon this trail running photography follows Beth Pascall's attempt at its fastest known time (FKT).
Her family crews her at the road crossings with food, water and support. In between, the job is to get ahead of her, hiking in over the fells with a heavy pack to meet her on the climbs, the scree and the descents, including at the top of Great Gable. She finishes in 14 hours 34 minutes, 50 minutes inside the previous women's record and, at the time, the fourth fastest round ever run. The last frames are mud-caked legs on Keswick's paving and a well-earned pint.
