An update

I haven't posted in a long time, but in the last couple of months I have been out and done abit, here is a quick look back at the last couple of months:

I have been confirmed a place on an expedition trip to MADagascar so I have been doing some exped training, I went for a long walk in February with a couple friends, I carried 20 Kg for 19 miles which wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be, It was a nice day out, explored a new area around my friends area, it was simply just walking, we stopped once for lunch, our pace was slower than normal walking but again it was quicker then I thought we would be.

In march we did another exped training camp, but this one was with the team who is going to MADagascar it was a two day walk in the Royal Forest of Dean, 15 miles first day and 9 the second, I carried less weight so it was more comfortable, we had to buy all our food at each stop so we didn't have to carry allot of food at any time. It was a very good camp but they put us in a campsite down in a valley at the beginning of March so when we woke up in the mourning it was very cold, frost everywhere, but it was a brilliant weekend.

Stay Safe
God Bless
