The scenery was amazing - but so many hills...

We came down int the summer when it was exceedingly wet at the south end - 2012. No I haven't blogged about that. We've been all round Wales and have tracks for most of it, but only photos apart from that, I regret to say. Currently looking at Chepstow to Minehead to link up the SWCP, maybe next July or maybe Easter. I would like to follow up this Routes thingy as we have tracks for quite a few more paths that we have run-hiked over the last few years.

Was this supported, or did you run with a backpack?
SteveCRunner Oct 2020 11:27pm, 21 Oct 2020 170 posts	Quote Pin SteveCRunner Wow, i didn't think of that. I had thought of posting the first in a series in future, because if you look at the end of one you usually find the next quite easily on the Fetch map, but ideally there would be a better search function. I have quite a lot more and I have been spending a few days converting runs into courses. In early days we carried bags ourselves when we were walkers, e.g., Pembs CP. Later on, as we gradually completed the Wales CP in a few two- or three-week holidays, we became runners or walk-runners and evolved to having a day bag and a travel company to move the main bags and book accommodation. I think that is what we did for OD. Yes, they are all consecutive days as we found a rest day didn’t really do much. If you want to know the company we used for OD my Mrs probably has a record.
