It is with great pleasure that we announce one of the hottest properties on the international SkyRunning scene will be bringing his inov-8 running shoes to The English Lake District.

Now we're in the age of App's, everybody seems to be making them. After reading a recent Summit magazine we thought we would share a few with you, that may well be useful in the mountains of the UK & Alps of Europe.
