Latest update on my (virtual) Lands End to John O'Groats walk. I know I'll forget to post tomorrow (the last day of the month) so updating today.

This month I managed 145 miles, which is my highest total so far. Had a few days away mid-month which let me get some extra walks in.

This takes me to 845miles total and, were I actually walking the #LEJOG route, I'd be just outside Linlithgow, to the west of Edinburgh.

Less than 350 miles to go! 🦵

Back in 2003, I walked 1111 miles from Land's End to John o'Groats. As you do.

21 years later, I've been interviewed by LEJOG legend Dave Felton for his new monthly podcast, LEJOGcast.

We had great fun, and I think it shows! I hope you like it.

Started a new challenge this weekend, where I'm doing a virtual walk from Lands End to John O' Groats (LEJOG) in the UK.

To be clear, I'm not actually walking this route. Instead I'm keeping track of the distances I do walk and mapping the miles onto the #LEJOG trail in #QGIS.

I want some motivation to keep walking through the winter months and thought this might be a fun way to do it.

So some factoids from the recent ride:

Total ascent was 24.5km, about 2.5 Everest's.
Averaged at 90km/day.
95h of cycling overall. Max speed 60kph. Getting lost: 3 times. Rabbits seen 47. Swifts seen infinity plus one. Punctures: 12. New Brake pads: 1. Crashes: 1. Cyclists met 22 (8 LEJoG).

Route planning via https://cycle.travel/ was really useful.
