Walk is done!

As I said on Twitter: 20.1 miles, 42000 steps, 7.5 hours, 3 blisters, 0 getting losts, 2 muddy boots, £312.50 donated, thanks to all for your support. Cold, windy and muddy but no rain, and only a day after schedule.

If you have been waiting for me to finish it before donating money, now is your time!

Very well done! Wishing you plenty of hot tea, hot food, and warm, dry socks.

Thank you! I have slipper socks in the shape of hamsters (my bunions go where their cheek pouches would be) which are ideal for this sort of situation. I will be hobbling around the office tomorrow!

They sound darling!

Hobble with pride. :-)

Congratulations. I am very pleased that my warnings of doom came to nothing. Those are the best kinds of warnings of doom.

Wow, good for you, that's really impressive! And well done for organizing the walk in a way that made it possible to actually complete it.

Thanks! I spent a couple of years moping whenever the Oxfam Walk came around before I hit on how to accomplish the key bits of it.
