where i was and when

so i finally got round to going back over the maps and blog posts and have used the official south west coast path distance calculator (and the very handy fact that the four little pink diamonds marking the path on OS1:50,000 maps equate to a mile - handy tip from arthur - the swcp veteran) to re-do the table of daily distances*

i've also worked out that the final average was 16.37 miles per day. the shortest day (the last one) being 7.5 miles. the longest day being 30 miles - 14.5 of those at night time. the next longest: 22.8 - between braunton and westward ho!

i had 38 nights on the trail, 11 of which were spent in actual beds under actual roof tops. 3 nights camping on proper sites with showers and stuff.

i had 8 solo walking days, and 7 solo nights - 3 of which were wild camping.

i had 15 different people walk with me.

i had 1 day where i seriously considered just not bothering. i had a great many more where i couldn't have imagined a better way to spend my summer.
