One small step for Carnation Designs one giant leap to the bar!
19.06.10
Well we have done it! 1 red hot sun, 2 men, 3 litres of water per day and 4 gruelling days...

Our last day was supposed to be the easiest with 15 miles to cover but by hell it was tough!! Most of the walking was on tarmac along the River Tyne and once we could see the bridges in Newcastle our minds started drifting as we thought we had conquered the wall - oh no, another 6 miles after that!!!

That said we did very well and made it to the finish by 4.00pm

We have also become minor celebrities on the walk as many people along the route had heard of 2 guys doing the wall in 4 Days. It is advised to take 7 - 8 days to cover the distance (in normal weather!)

So that is it... Until next year.

Thanks to everyone for the support, organising and general mickey taking and also a big thank you to all who have donated towards our chosen charities. If you have not done so yet please find a little time to help with any amount you can.

Thanks again Sir Edmund Wilson and Sir Ranulph Hall

Purgatory
18.06.10
If I was to think of one word to describe today it would be purgatory! I cannot begin to explain how exhausting this is on both the body and mind!!

We have pounded out 22 (very straight and parralel to the road) miles today in blistering heat, clear blue skies and no breeze whatsoever. I think we have climbed over (not vaulted!) at least 60 stiles not to mention the general gates and cattle grids etc.

However, like our feet, we have broken the wall. Our final leg takes us through the industrial heartland of Newcastle docks to our destiny in Wallsend. This is expected to be in the region of a very welcome 16 miles.

Champagne for everyone!

Through the pain barrier

Well today we hit the wall proper. It was massively difficult walking but this was compensated by the stunning scenery and the historical nature of the wall. The sun beat down all day but we eventually found sanctuary and a cool beer for our labours.

Well we are on our way! The first day of our four day trip and it's the longest day of them all!

We have set off from Bowness on Solway, which is to the West of Carlisle, and we are walking 26 miles today (phew!) and stopping over night in Newtown.

We will keep you up to date on our progress - hopefully from Newtown tomorrow night!
