I walked from Land's End to John o'Groats in 2009, raising over £4,000 for MS Research and Relief Fund in the process. I posted to this blog every day. In 2018, I followed the Great English Walk from Chepstow to Berwick-upon-Tweed, raising money for Ucare. Now, for 2020, my challenge is to walk the South West Coast Path from Minehead to Poole, once again for Ucare. JUST ONE LIFE: LIVE IT

TGO Challenge
Well, the route is in, modified as suggested by our vetter. Our train tickets for the journey to Mallaig have been bought. We have to wait a few days before being able to book the journey home. I have a printout of our route on A4 sheets pinned to a wall upstairs. Much easier than a screen to get an overall view of it. The main modification to our original route was making the stretch from Inverie to Fort Augustus four days instead of three. It was thought that we would possibly spend more time than was wise at The Old Forge at Inverie which is right next to where we shall disembark from the Mallaig ferry. I've never been to Knoydart so our first few days are going to be magnificent. Hope the weather is good.
It looks like we're heading for the same start point for the TGO. Myself and acouple of friends are hoping to spend the first four days weaving around in Knoydart. I too have everything crossed for good weather, the FWA is no match for the real route. See you in Mallaig!
