One week!

In Updates.

As of Sunday 27th April, it is exactly one week until myself (Vashti) and Joe start our epic Coast to Coast hike. I snatched a last opportunity for a "practice walk", and Saturday saw me trekking a ring around Edale, possibly the most beautiful valley in the Peak District (pics below). We'll be making our final preparations this week, along with appropriate sacrifices to the weather gods by way of insurance. We have never walked this sort of distance before, and I'm nervous as well as excited - remember you'll be able to follow along with our adventures (misadventures?) on this website. Day-by-day we'll be charting our progress, posting our position on the map, and uploading regular updates, including such essential info as when we last fell down, got wet, got lost, and - most importantly - GOT THERE.

We'll continue fundraising all the way through the walk, so there's still plenty of time to donate and share our Crowdfunder. Thank you so much for your support so far. You are making this project happen. :)
