PUSHED TO MY LIMITS (wild camping on the UK’s toughest trail)

Спорт

I am taking a crazy hike. Walking from John O’Groats to Lands End, this will take me the length of Britain, around 1400 miles.
This week I am struck down with a nasty dose of man flu. I battle through hiking through the cold and finish off the west highland way! As my cold subsides I muster the power to climb Ben Nevis, the first of the three peaks (+ the bonus Cornish hill).

    You are amazing. Producing great video while traversing the most challenging terrain and weather at the same time as suffering a cold that would have put most of us to bed! Capping it off with an under 2 hour climb up Ben Nevis is super hero stuff! Just don't overdo it. 😀

    Well done Tom, it is such a shame that you had a bad cold, and the weather wasn’t brilliant either, because the scenery on the walk from Glen Moriston down through Glengarry is absolutely spectacular and I think you were probably not well enough to truly appreciate and enjoy your surroundings. Isn’t it great to find some thing like a little honesty box with drinks and food at the side of the road? That is one of the things I love about Scotland, trust, care, and friendship especially for the weary traveler on foot. It actually seems bizarre to see so many people around you on Ben Nevis after watching you trekking through the wilds with not a soul about since you saw Keeley &Philly. I very much hope that you can find an affordable midgie head net in Fort William and if not that Izzy can bring you one to Glasgow.

I’m amazed your shoes were ok for that type of climb, you don’t have any ankle support. Great videos, the scenery is stunning. Get a new midgie net in the camp shop, it’s a long way till you get away from the wee besties. Cheers Mike 🍷🥃
