So, time to come clean and go public.
In June I'm planning to challenge myself to the limit and complete the Ridgeway Long Distance path.
The Ridgeway National Trail is a 87 miles (139km) route through ancient landscapes from Averbury to Ivenhoe. It crosses rolling, open downland to the west of the River Thames and through secluded valleys and woods in the Chilterns to the east, following the same route used since prehistoric times by travellers, herdsmen and soldiers.
Just to make things a little harder I'm going to do it non-stop and might even run some of it. I've run a few fairly long distance runs in training (28 miles is my longest) so I know I should be able to do it - but I've never done anything so long and in one go so I have a real feeling of the unknown.
So now I've gone public there is not backing out. I'll update this blog on my training and kit and maybe if I can find a way actually provide live updates on the day.
Wish me luck!
