So what do I need to do? Print maps, and walk. Walk a lot.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been thinking about the time I&#8217;m taking to walk the 200 miles, and at times, I&#8217;ve thought that perhaps it&#8217;s not challenging enough. I think about the times (perhaps a long time ago now) when I&#8217;ve walked between twenty and thirty miles in a day, and when I&#8217;ve walked twenty odd miles a few days on the trot (forgive the pun). However, that was a long time ago. It was when I didn&#8217;t weigh quite as much and it was when I was almost physically fit (almost). The last time I tried walking anywhere near this amount of miles, around fourteen miles a day, several days running (sorry) was plenty. It was more than plenty, actually. The day after I&#8217;d walked 100 miles in 7 days, I had to side-step up and down the stairs because my legs wouldn&#8217;t fully cooperate.<\/p>\n<p>So, I think that puts my mind at rest. It is a challenge, a suitable challenge. But, one has to move upward as well as forward with these things &#8211; perhaps after I&#8217;ve completed this challenge (and after I&#8217;ve become somewhat fitter as a result), I should look to the next one. Let&#8217;s concentrate on getting this one out of the way first though.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Less than three weeks to go now.
