Watching the rain

It just started heaving down and reminded me that yesterday one of my team mates was chatting happily about not needing boots if if was fine for the next few weeks. Apparently we will be doing much of the walk along old roman roads and well made pathways which is reassuring.

There's a month to go and that is quite scary. The practice walks are getting longer and the sponsorship total is getting closer. It looks like team Big Breaths Short Steps will be six in number. The plan is to get out for a long walk as a group next weekend. Mind you if we discover that we hate each other at this point it's a little late! The team reward  arrived in the form of a 'buff' scarf from the organisers.

Things still to do include more walking, booking a hotel to collapse into at the end and sorting out how best to arrive at the start point in Didsbury and  some more walking just to be on the safe side.
