Hiking 10:26:53 [3] 70.3 km (8:55 / km) +363m 8:42 / km
ahr:110 max:181 slept:5.4 shoes: Saucony Peregrine

Remembering Srebrenica walk - from Halton to Kendal (mostly via the canals), with a stop for lunch at Brew Brothers then back - though jogged the last 10K: met and picked up by Sarah just south of Carnforth. Included my first marathon (!) and apparently set a time of 6'03 for a 42.2km section.

An interesting challenge - certainly the walk before lunch (40.6km) was relatively easy. Things only got sore from about 55km onwards. Jogged most of the final 10km because it felt easier than walking - hip very sore by end. Pleased, but of course, always reflective of the events that 'inspired' the walk.

ahr:108 max:157 slept:6.8 shoes: Saucony Excursion

After a week of clearing and moving and a day of unpacking was so nice to get out for this walk in heavy rain and strong winds. Lovely!! Wore my Berghaus which was perfect... over the Lune, up the track to the M6 and prison, into Williamson Park, back along the canal and would have used the cycleway back to Halton, but it's closed for flood repairs. Over the Lune Aquaduct and tried to use the northern footpath but it was submerged under a raging Lune. Back along the road. Brilliant start to life in Halton.

Move Day! Lots of lifting and shunting around.... new place is beautiful and a complete contrast to the Hall. Very contemporary, clean, white and (much) smaller!

Strength & Conditioning 1:05:00 [2]

And a final flourish - lawns for the last time.... it's been amazing living at the Hall, especially during Lockdown. Now time to move into the 21st Century!

Strength & Conditioning 2:10:00 [2]

More digging and clearing - this time the backs... my muscle mass has declined for sure!
