Offa\’s Dyke -The new challenge

You may all remember the coast to coast walk that myself and Sam did 3 years ago. We raised over £5k for the YAA and RABI and had much sore feet over the 14 days. Well we are at it again! This time it is the Offa\’s Dyke path running from Chepstow in the south to Prestatyn in the north. 177 miles over 13 days. Whilst we are not doing it for charity this year any donations to the president\’s charities will be of great comfort to us both.

We arrived in Chepstow tonight at tea time and decided to do the first bit of the walk today as the weather tomorrow is not looking great. What we didn\’t realise is that from Chepstow to the start is just over 2 miles! So that was 2 miles to the start and 2 miles back. Chepstow castle is a spectacular sight from the English side of the Wye.
