Hadrians Walk, what has happened so far…

As I sit here in front of my computer, nice and warm The Hadrians walkers are pitching tents at the end of the third day of their walk. News of the walkers and how they are going is scanty and I am hoping that Martins feet are still firmly attached to his legs and that his sense of direction has improved.

I have struck up a tentative friendship with Dad who writes and you can read his updates of the walk here

Dad who writes, posted this photo with the caption,

“We are walking across the strong, rocky bones of our land #hadrianswalk”

This photo really brings home the enormity of what these people are doing.

They are walking 84 miles in 6 days.

I walked a couple miles around a perfectly flat headland recently and it nearly bloody killed me.

So I am in awe of their efforts to raise money for the Joseph Salmon trust with this massive walk.

Well done to them.

If you want to donate some cash you can do so here.

But if you are broke and cant afford it just go and comment here and I will donate a dollar for you.

    What a gorgeous picture! Good to see an update. I was hoping to catch one on Dan Hughe’s site, but he hasn’t posted one. And yeah, I would have collapsed or fallen off a hill or in a moor by now.

    I just hope the weather holds out for them as it can be very bleak up there at the best of times. Stunning scenery though and the air – clean and crisp to blow the cobwebs away 😉

    it was stunning, and painful.

    thanks for all the support Kim, you have gone above and beyond and many people have spoken of their appreciation.
