looking back.....and forward....

What a journey from the first walk of 3 miles to 63 miles in only 5 months!

As a team we have laughed, cried, screamed and hugged,
we have supported each other through personal trauma, medical injury, through hungover walks and learned to laugh when its painful (I'm thinking of those hailstones!)
spent hours talking nonsense and had more discussions about our horrible feet than was probably needed

Some thanks:
A mention of our support crew who were wonderful, and really did step up in the end, they turned up, sat in the sunshine having a BBQ, talking to pretty girls dressed as nurses and never once complained - our heros!!

Thanx to Sam with out whom we would never have left Hetton, and to the 2 medical guys who sat and patted my hands while I cried, and cried also with out whom I would never have left Hetton.

Thanks to John and Simon for their harsh words at Conistone we felt less than thankful at the time, but it was what was needed.

I'm sad that our journey is sort of over........ but excited that it will start again.........

To next year...... and to getting right all the things we got wrong.....to the weather being just right (not too hot, or to cold, no hail or snow)

To Team 'Caminata' x.x.x

I will wake the blog back up in September when we start training again!!
