'West Highland Way?'
'Great Glen Way?'
'Pennine Way?'
'Cotswold Way?'
'Great Glen Way?'
'Pennine Way?'
'Cotswold Way?'
This is what people have been asking us over the last seven weeks ask as we pass them by. Today it was 'Coastal Path?' and I felt very smug in being able to reply with 'John o'Groats to Land's End, day 48', the reply is invariably 'well done! Nearly there now'.
For me, today felt like walking on air as we took the coastal path from Helston, passing through Porthleven, and when we stopped at Pra Sands for coffee I couldn't believe that we'd done 9 Miles already. The coastal path was fantastic, the hills didn't register any pain, the feet were not hurting and the whole 18 Miles to Penzance felt like a Mo Farah lap of honour at the Olympics.
Our accommodation for the night is a shared room in the Youth Hostel with some guys who are currently serving in the military and know all about Leukotape and foot pain. One of the guys said that he had to carry a 50kg pack once! I reckon mine must be down to 10kg now.
Land's End tomorrow and I'm going to enjoy every last second of it.
