So i'm about 5 days behind schedule but so what.

Covered approx 410 miles now, so hitting 100 miles a week, it's just that the route has proved to be a little longer than i expected due to all the ins and outs around the coastline.

Done a lot of wild camping, seeing some beautiful sunsets, atmospheric misty mornings, although over Exmoor that turned into a whole day of thick fog requiring compass use for the first time.

Weather has been grey and showery for the last week, inhibiting solar charging, but fortunately with enough gaps between the rain to get kit dried out.

Had some nice relaxing days off and met more interesting people on the route and off it, including a guy named Kev who is about to set off to attempt a new world record for RUNNING around the world. Puts things in persepective!
