jennywren Jan 2021 3:34pm, 25 Jan 2021 16,278 posts	0 jennywren Another 4-ish miles and I’ll be off the A30! Woohoo.
Sushi. Jan 2021 3:39pm, 25 Jan 2021 24,367 posts	0 Sushi. Yay. Great progress everyone 12 miles till my 100m postcard
Treacle Jan 2021 5:28pm, 25 Jan 2021 3,971 posts	0 Treacle Woohoo Jenny!! I'm on the M5 for the forseeable as far as I can tell!
jennywren Jan 2021 5:30pm, 25 Jan 2021 16,279 posts	0 jennywren Yeah not looking forward to the M5! Do we run up the hard shoulder or what? Sounds jolly dangerous...
♪♫ Synge ♪♫ Jan 2021 5:59pm, 25 Jan 2021 38,750 posts	0 ♪♫ Synge ♪♫ Take care on the M5! I haven't looked at the LEJOG route, as I'm on the WCP, but I must say that I am surprised that they have sent you up the M5 rather than planning a route that is a bit more true to what "real" walkers/runners/cyclists would do. Has there been any comment on that on the FB group? (On the WCP, we are often on footpaths that are not even covered by streetview, so they seem to have taken some care plotting the route.)
jennywren Jan 2021 6:02pm, 25 Jan 2021 16,280 posts	0 jennywren I haven’t seen any comments about it but I’m surprised too. Our toute is hardly picturesque! I suppose it’s easier to plot or something? I certainly wouldn’t want to do it IRL
Sushi. Jan 2021 6:37pm, 25 Jan 2021 24,368 posts	0 Sushi. I’ve seen a different company that do a lejog on a route that you’d IRL and it’s around the 1000mile mark I’m sure I read on end to end that they’ve gone for the most direct rite over the other.
Treacle Jan 2021 7:23pm, 25 Jan 2021 3,972 posts	0 Treacle I'll take the 'virtual' M5 rather than an extra 125 miles I think :-). Its definitely not the route you'd do if you were actually there!
