Walking the 630 miles of the South West Coast Path, end to end, in aid of Action Medical Research, Dorothy House and Rode Village Hall. I hope to complete it in 30 days starting April 6 2011, powered by pasties and bivvying-out most nights.

Thermarest try-out...
Today one of the last bits of kit arrived, my new Thermarest NeoAir which is very small and super lite. So with my first night less than a week away it's time to bivy out in the garden to test it. Lets hope it's as good as people say and the fox doesn't come sniffing round the garden in the wee hours.
I have a plan...

Checking out my new boots...
Just back from Brittany where I checked out my new Salomon Quest 4D GTX (now they sounds fast) with a short 2 hour walk on the coast path. All good from the boots point of view and I must say that the Brittany coast path sections are as good, but not as well maintained, as those on the SWCP. Next test will be sleeping out in the garden in my bivvy bag...
