SO WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?

The Frog Graham Round is a fell-running and swimming challenge that was created by Peter Hayes via inspirations from the classic Bob Graham Round but with an added twist: As well as running just over 40 miles and ascending and descending 15,750 feet over the North Western Lake District fells, the contender must swim across Bassenthwaite Lake, Crummock Water, Buttermere and Derwentwater before finishing where it all started at Keswick’s Moot Hall.
 
This is not your ordinary day out in the hills and lakes and we want to be absolutely clear: This is a formidable, very tough challenge and will appeal to endurance athletes looking for something a little out of the ordinary and those who wish to push themselves one step further.  

It is categorically NOT for novices and anyone considering an attempt should be an experienced off-road runner and very competent open-water swimmer. Seriously.
