My summer trip for this year is a long distance thru hike along the South Downs Way.
Starting in Winchester and walking to Eastbourne.
This is my first long distance hike.
Dan👍👍 Great to see you and Warren out on another bucket list adventure. 100 miles is no easy feat regardless of terrain, that's a long trek carrying a pack man. Nice to have villages along the way to stop at, resting and refueling for the push ahead. Amazing burger stop at the end of day one, I wanted to be there myself but you have a ways to go… See ya soon.
James told me you two were doing it – after all your trepidation you did it . Well done 👍 it’s actually surprising what we are capable of with a positive mental attitude. I”ll bet you are well chuffed with yourself? Great to have someone like Warren to guide you – he looks like he’s done a fair bit before 😂 now all I’ve gotta do is convince that Mr Sussex Outdoors that he does actually want to do the SDW 😂
Who was the third person camera (wo)man around the approach to Old WInchester hill ?
Almost literally on my doorstep, I can't wait for the next episode as within the first hour you will be passing one of my regular camping spots just North of Clanfield before you reach the Butser area, where I know you've camped previously. Good luck for stage #2 and beyond fellas.
G'day Dan, Warren, ….. 100 miles to do, …….. that'd only be a coupla hours at worst by vehicle. "Mad Dogs and Englishmen" comes to mind ; ) Only jok'n of course …… you're a better man, (men), than I am Gunga Din 👍👍👍👍👍👍 Cheers Duke.

Looking forward to part 2! That is a serious challenge. That bar/cabin was probably a sight for sore eyes.
