About this ebook
You're sat at home thinking about your next walking trip and with The Proclaimers' '500 miles' playing in the background you decide to walk one thousand miles.
For a young man this would be a big challenge but at the age of 66 is it too much?
Then having chosen a route which takes you along some of the major long distance walks in Great Britain, across some of the wildest landscapes the British Isles has to offer, carrying a tent and being, in the main, entirely unsupported, the challenge starts to take on epic proportions.
Throw in a few blisters, a leaky tent, storm force winds and rain, river crossings and rock climbing and you begin to get a flavour of the challenges faced.
Join Alan on his journey across three countries, and 1215 miles. Experience the journey with him, meet some lovely, generous people and see how faith kept him going when things got really tough.
