24/06/2010

An early start to get ready for an 8/10 mile walk.
The day was slightly cooler than tuesday so I wore jeans. The stinging nettles were not going to get me this time!!!

The route now in my mind was much easier than last time, I failed to get lost and found all those paths that I failed to find the first time around, whoops.

Shin splints were an issue to start with, again the issue came from starting the walk on tarmac. The pain is unreal but I carry on. My legs are still a bit tight now, need to keep stretching them out. This could become a real issue but I am hoping to get it sorted b4 the big walk.

I managed to complete the walk hitting an average speed of 3.3mph which I was pleased with. Another few walks like this and I will increase the weight in my pack.

Keep tuned for more on my training
