Ricky Lightfoot is hooked on the outdoors and has been fell running since he was 16.

The Dearham athlete first started running competitively within Cumbria and soon moved up to competing at county level.

Before long, he was representing Great Britain and winning races.

He has travelled to Malaysia, South Africa, Mauritius, the USA and across Europe for his sport, but he loves exploring his backyard – the Lake District.

He says: "I think part of the reason I take pictures and videos is to show people what we have in the Lakes. To me there's nowhere else like it and I'm constantly exploring new routes where people are less likely to go."

Here's one of his videos, which he posted on social media site Facebook, which shows a different perspective of the area.
