We woke up to rain, so unpacked the raincoats and umbrellas, and off we went. At the very start we took a right when we should have gone left, but thankfully it was easy to backtrack because it was flat. Over a reservoir, through a Forrest, chasing sheep out of the way, and then climbed Fn Mount Everest. O.M.F.G. Foggy and on a cliff edge. I almost cried because I was so scared. Pics will never do it justice. BUT, I awarded myself a mountain goat patch. I dare anyone to take it from me!!





More mud, more fn-B mountains. Was wondering if this was a good decision until the guys called lunch by the creek. I was totally defeated and couldn’t think of anything except, will I have to do more of that fn shite? The day seemed to be never ending.
We found a very strange crossing that seemed to be built into the rocks with old derelict buildings, but couldn’t figure out what it was for.
There was then a VERY long downhill to get to the end of the day.






The mileage was supposed to be 11 but somewhere I made a mistake. It took forever to get to the end. Luckily we had an amazing dinner and drinks at the Diggle Hotel before going back to our rooms at Sunfield Stables. The guys tried to work but connectivity was a beatch. I went to bed and was out in 2 minutes, that might be a record since I was reasonably sober.
