Day 1 sees Peter depart from Winchester at 10 AM, trekking along the South Downs Way to Cheriton, a total of approximately 8 miles or 13 km. With the day promising to be warmer than we have seen so far in the year, it will be a hard trek to the top of the hills! We wish Peter well and shall get an update later on during the day!
After intending to do approximately 13 km, Peter says he did more like 20!
The daily mileage is not necessarily what you do ! Coming out of Winchester today I took the wrong path. I went about a mile before I realized it. I had to retrace my steps. Then I had nearly an hours walk from the south downs path to my billet. Then another half mile from the billet to the pub for supper. Today’s total is more like 20 k !
A well-earned rest in the Flower Potts Inn, Cheriton I think, Peter!
