The Cross Bay Challenge is a unique way to experience the stunning scenery of Morecambe Bay and the South Lakes. Historically the quickest route from Cumbria to Lancashire at low tide, the bay crossing dates back to the 13th century when monks from the local abbeys served as guides to travellers. Whilst the monks have now been replaced by highly experienced guides equipped with a host of navigation and safety equipment. Richard Webster rose to the challenge and finished in a time of 01:28:22 for 7th place and first vet.
