Terrible nights sleep before this walk
What if we (or more specifically I) couldn't do it! maybe we should have practiced before we registered! Spent an hour in Asda wondering what people who do outdoorsy stuff eat - finally decided to pack food for the 5000 (Plougmans lunch, fairtrade banana cake, fruit, tuna sandwich, cheese sandwich, organic crisps) then realised I didn't own a sensible rucksack to put it all in - off to Oxfam luckily found an ancient Lowe Alpine number for £1.99 did intend to replace it but feel that it has become a bit of a mascot now! just hope it hold it's self together until May.

Walk was much easier than I had thought the first sign of competitive spirit came through as we set off before everyone else and were determined not to be caught up ..... started to think we could actually do this!

The only down side was the lack of lunch Duncan was in charge and suggested a 2 stop lunch strategy - shame we forgot about the second lunch stop!
