Morning folks. A nice round 5 and the second unicorn in a row. I would imagine it’s to do with the 6.5 mile walk with 1000ft of elevation I did yesterday.
Anyhoo, I survived, just, I thought I wasn’t going to make it back, the final 100 or so yards up the hill to the cottage was the worst! We were soaked through, covered in mud and every limb was aching. Did our stretches, had a shower, I took some painkillers too, and had a late, for us, tea. In bed not long after Antiques Roadshow finished. Thought I’d sleep like a log but I’ve not had the best night. But I’m not aching today, I’d call that a result as last night I thought I’d never walk again!

@Grannylorraine I’m going out for the day too. See you later! Along with the retrobate that goes by
@ColinUK ( only joking) and the lovely
@Pattidevans. Really looking forward to meeting you all in the wild!
Here’s some photos of our walk, the SWCP which we joined from Drizzard ( we walked from the cottage) and back to Crackington Haven. It was muddy, steep, wet and very, very misty. We met a local lady who told us we were doing the worst bit of that particular stage. She was right, it was brutal!
@Robin not dissimilar to the part you walked earlier in the year. It took us an hour to walk one mile on average. Just when you thought you were nearly there another summit would appear. Was it worth it? The jury’s out!
