After 3 weeks of walking training with my fully loaded rucksack I have now finalised my itinerary of where I plan to reach each night if I'm to complete the path in 30 days. It's going to be tough, especially in the first week as I try and go from walks of 15-18 miles on the relative flat of the Somerset countryside to the 21 miles a day with the ups and downs of the coast path. An interesting statistic I have recently discovered is that the total height climbed has been calculated to be 114,931 ft (35,031 m), almost four times the height of Mount Everest during the 630 miles!
