Evening everyone It felt really good to get back outside, hiking the West Highland Way towards Tyndrum. It was one of those days where everything felt a little odd. We struggled to get into any rhythm and find our stride. It’s one of things we are going to have

Happy Easter! Hope you all had a fantastic day We only walked 4.3 miles today because Eve isn’t feeling too great, more on that later. I used to think that we should be aiming for higher mileage or a minimum daily mileage, but I quickly learned that this

Third day on the Cateran Trail and it’s been an epic challenging day. Last night was rough. Eve and I shared a bed last night and because of her cold she had a very unsettled night. Eve spent the whole night trashing around and kicking me, coupled with her
