I would like to know if there are any walking groups that I can join that
organize weekend walks in the Lake District, however Im not actually fussed
which NP I go to.

Im quite a keen walker and Im 25 so would want to go with my age group for
the more serous stuff.

If you're not fussed about which NP, then see
http://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/index/visiting/ranger-walks.htm

There are no search criteria for age group, but just set the
"Suitable for:" field to "Experienced" and/or set the "Walk length"
criterion appropriately, or maybe add "strenuous" as a keyword.

Just don't get left behind by the middle-aged.

How old was that famous fell runner in the lakes when he retired??

Man i cant remember his name.. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Joss Naylor? I guess he's retired from competition by now but he
celebrated his sixtieth birthday by running the 60 highest Lakeland
peaks in about 36 hours

Pah! That's nothing. Yiannis Tridimas did a 60 at 60 in 23hrs. 52mins.
on Sat/Sun 6th/7th August 2005.
