#GoNicePlacesDoGoodThings There was a time when we had a lot of time free, so we stumbled into the outdoors. We travelled, did some routes and life was good.
We worked in an outdoor shop, saved some cash, and got ourselves kitted out. Then our kit started falling apart, we were no longer students and we realised the cost of replacing it. As we waited to pick up yet another x-xtra large fleece in the sales we patched up our waterproofs and wore an extra jumper in our smelly sleeping bags. During this time we realised that the passing years had taught us something, we had the experience to create something new. And somewhere therein lays the real story of how Alpkit.com™ was born. Born out of the passion for outdoor activity and not accepting the costs involved in getting quality equipment in our sacks. Four ordinary people trying to make some thing extraordinary. And why Alpkit.com™? it's just a name.. we go to the alps, we climb, we paddle, we board, we visit our in laws.. we produce kit.. we didn't want it to be complicated.
And that’s a wrap on The Lap with Alpkit 🏔️💙🥹
A huge congratulations to every single incredible runner who stepped over the start line and took on the magical adventure that is the 🏃❤️🔥
Mother Nature certainly brought the rain this year 🌧️… but that didn’t stop the smiles, the high fives or the good vibes!
We had an absolute blast cheering you on at the start, finish and at our Ambleside cheer zone, watching you all on the journey was pretty special. 👏
Here’s to muddy miles, big adventures and one hell of a Lap.
Who’s already looking forward to next year? 👀
Not a bad way to finish the working day 🏃⛰️
Dan and Georgia from our Ambleside store team make the most of a Lake District evening with a run up Fairfield via Stone Arthur. A classic route, right on the doorstep.
