Kit!

Mo With less than 5 weeks til our walk, I thought it a good idea to get out and buy some of the kit I would need for walking 100miles!

Instead of driving to the shops, I walked of course, almost 7 miles - though I did cheat on the way home, walking 1.5 miles to the train station :D

I needed a day pack, big enough to carry water and food for a day of walking, as well as waterproofs, first aid kit, spare socks etc...  The staff at Cotswold outdoor were really helpful and helped me find one that fitted me correctly - really important to have a comfortable bag when walking 100 miles, need to look after the old back!

Anyway, a nice walk along the river, and a successful shopping trip. My plan from next week is to walk 8-10 miles twice a week, and one really long walk, 16-20 miles, a week.
