You're like a big kid, shouting at the lorries, finding joy in the simple gifts given by the world throughout the day. Never change.
I always end up with a big smile on my face watching your videos. They're all fantastic to watch and you're such a great guy with your sense of humour. I even (silently) say "Medic!" when I'm out on my long walks and see some roadkill on the paths etc. Keep up the brilliant work, Hazey! Much love back to you!! ❤
Another amazing journey in your company mate. Beautiful, funny, sentimental, life affirming - Thanks Hazey !

The transition from beer slushies onto hardcore alcohol slushies over the 4 days is wonderful. 🤣

Ditto,,nearly wet myself with laughter talking to the cows,,,beautiful sense of humour
It’s not often that I laugh out loud watching a vlog, but you with those cows made me do it. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching this adventure buddy. Take care
Another brilliant series Hazey. It looks like you were on the cycle route and not the walking route towards the end as you missed by far the most stunning part of the walk - the Seven Sisters Country Park, which is the last 8-10 miles to Eastbourne from memory. You'll have to do it again, if you get those sunsets over the Seven Sisters it’s as good as anything you will see in a Yorkshire 😉

Yeah, you're right about the different routes, I just didn't want to be the guy to say haha.
Paul you are an absolute legend and wonderful person. It’s been a delight to follow you on your journey and inspiring to us all to find our own journey’s, long or short. Your ending on how you felt swimming in the sea and your noggin was good to hear and something I hope some of us experience as we navigate our own mental challenges in life #ItsOkayToTalk Look forward to your next video.🙏🙂
I have so much love for this channel and of course for the man like Hazey himself ❤️💙🌲🥄
Inspiring words.....”I send you nothing but love”. Your a good man. Would love to meet you over a beer when your in Manchester next.
"Howl Goo' Hazey🙂. Another epic in the 🌞!! Looking forward to your next one mate👍
I cant stop watching u ur so addictive and funny love it wen u just get ur kit off and dive in pond anywere its great ur wild must b cd like lol keep it up bring more stuff out cant wait 👌🍻🤣❤️🇬🇧
Well, a great hike! Great views, sunrises and sunsets and meteor showers!, not to mention loving your running commentary! Thanks for taking us along...looking forward to the next series! Contentment well earned! ATB! And Cheers!
“I don't want any beef.” Laughed out loud on that one. Thanks for sharing your experience. Can't wait to get out in the spring and explore.
What a way to end a weekend with a hazey video 👌

Thanks for taking us with you Hazy, it looked like a truly great hike with lots of growth. Inspiring to us all, much love mate 🙏
An amazing journey you took us all on there Hazy. Congrats and huge thanks !
Inspiring and perfectly captured as always. Your videos are truly a light in dark places.
Brilliant effort Hazey. My mouth felt dry just watching that one. That dip in the sea must of been heaven. Look forward to the next one.
Was a bit disappointed you didn’t go the seven sisters coastal route mate! It was soul destroying when I came across them after 25 miles but the views and sunset was quite spectacular.. anyway, always love watching your vids, your banter is superb!

Yeah It surprised the hell out of me too, especially after 25 miles lol.. Each one I crawled up i counted and got to 7 and there were a few more I was like what the hell! lol but the scenery and the sunset was absolutely stunning so all was good.. Agree with Mr Haze himself, the SDW grew on me and got better and better as I reached Eastbourne.. pushed myself a little hard doing it in 4 days but enjoyed the challenge despite my ‘trotters’ feeling otherwise.. cycling it must be really cool too..
Another great series mate, loved it keep going, you cheer me up watching your vids.
Another brilliant series! Thanks for all you hard work. 👍🙂
Absolute belter of a series! Thanks for taking us all along with you! Big love! ❤
Mate I am going through some proper awful shite in my life at the moment. I’ve finally watched the last one in the series of this walk and you truly are helping me. My noggin is absolutely smashed to pieces and you’re helping put it back together, into perspective and making me realise what I need to do to fix myself. Now I have this freedom to get out there and do what I love, your videos have made me realise days and weeks in the hills and mountains will help me find inner peace. Much love mate and hopefully see you out there at some point

@ 6:25 To the field full of cows: "I don't want any beef." Well done mate! 😁
You lift us up; thank you. Much Love, be well.
Heartiest congratulations, Hazey! I think that this is one of your best series yet! You looked brown as a berry by the end! Really enjoyed your reflections at the vid’s end, powerful. Thanks for showing us these wonders. Take good care.
Funny, heart warming and inspirational and that was just the views.... Another brilliant one, you are a STAR.
Great series as always Hazey. Its crazy because all you've done is walk. It's nothing most of us don't do every day, but its inspiring and obviously has a majorly positive affect on your mental health as well as lots of others, mine included. Well done mate and look forward to the next one.
And long may that noggin be in a good place...... never met you.....probably never will, yet enjoying your journeys with you gives me a welcome break from the madness of the world!!
classic haze. love all of these trips and the banter along the way. superb.
Dude. What a fantastic set of vids. Such an amount of effort in doing it and putting it out to us. You're a legend, a gentleman and a scholar. Got back into hiking because of yours and others videos on here and as helped my mental health massively. It is what I was born to do and wouldn't even know it unless I got back out there and put myself back in the peace of nature. Thanks for all you do. Much love. MEDIC!!!
Cracking multi day they get better n better easy best long distance marching vids on the tube 👌👍😁😁😁
Beautiful Lad. Those cows were asking for trouble though. You take the knee out they are like upside down turtles 😀😀
Slush-puppy cocktails, get-in!!
Good stuff, as usual, Hazy. Here is a horn for you. BEEP! 📯📯

Hahahahah YES MATE!
Such a beautiful hike. Just wonderful.
Made me me chuckle when you went into Alfriston and you saw the roller, don’t worry, they’d have been out of towners too. If I’d have seen you I’d have bibbed my horn. Instead of going m via Jevington you’d have found pukka pitches by cuckmere haven by seven sisters country park. Anyway stoked you did it Paul . Been watching you a couple of years and admire what you do and stoked you came down to do it. I’ve only done it in sections. Big up you you and nemaste 🏃🙏🏻🙏🏻🤠🏆🏆
Belter of a 4 parter that was Haze. Well done, Looking forward to the next one.
Hi mate, Bloody love these long distance walks. You're a legend. I hope the old brain noggin is getting better. As always stay safe and happy travels.
This is the trail Is absolutely amazing especially them rolling hills - Always such a highlight when I see your videos pop up on my feed, your one liners always kill me lol keep rocking my friend
Great stuff, good watch. Yeah loved the beep.

Well done Hazey, amazing trek and videos, from a down to earth legend 🙏👍
Loved this series. Should have thrown in 7 sisters and beachy head for the lols
Brilliant set of 4 videos Hazy really enjoyed them ☀️☀️☀️
Another stunning series Hazy lad cant wait until your next trip matey 👍👍👍💪💪
I did the sdw 30 years ago in a heatwave...I remembered the golf course, and the river...well done
It’s been an absolute pleasure. Loved this one. Love most of them. Sat here cheering you on whilst holding my new spoon made by the wonderful Joey D. I raise that spoon to you and your efforts young man. 1/12 with love, Mateface. Bring on the next treasure.

Dude, you are inspirational.
Really enjoyed that Haze man. So many funny moments as well, especially the cows in the field. Need to do that trip one day. Looking forward to your next journey. All the best. ☺️ 👍
Another great hike completed. Fab set of videos as ever 😎👍🍺
Great effort . Great to watch another one of your great adventures. Always entertaining
Well done and thank you for sharing your journey. Ice Cold In Alex.
Brilliant Hazy! Enjoyed all the vids, Stay safe mate you're a true inspiration
Well done mate! Would love to have your strength, stamina and determination!👍🏼
Another cracking series mate. Loved it 😊
Just brilliant. Loved every minute. Many thanks Hazey.
One word ......Brilliant
Brilliant - loved it! My old stomping ground as a kid and the last long walk I did, with a good mate. Sorry to hear about your blisters but also relieved to hear about your blisters because I was worried my own feet might've been weak and pathetic (my toenails fell off...)
sometimes you just have to turn up and ask the universe to honk its horn, roll with the good and the bad with equal temper, become the fine tool, a full and profound life requires.
Nice to see you out and about in the soft south
Love these vids and seeing you do the long distance hikes. Wonderful to see that the walk has helped your noggin.
Top notch video Hazy lad, heatwave crack and good vibes. All good. 👍
Glad you got down here Hazey. I grew up in the north as I've mentioned to you before, born a Smoggie, grew up near Northallerton. I discovered and settled in East Sussex 3-4 years ago, (don't know why it took me so long!) and the scenery, dare I say it, packs a punch to rival that of the moors. Even more so if you head north a bit to the High Weald which I live in/on. Love your observational humour and amazing down to earth warm nature. Top man, never stop, your tribe loves you.
Thanks for the trip mate you smashed it hope your healing well and had a few beers when u finished what a journey with some lovely scenery and some really good people along the way take care and all the best and thanks again for sharing 🙏❤️❤️👍🍻🍻
Beautiful trip, thanks for sharing !
Awesome video, another awesome journey, awesome banter. Yes should of done the pat on back joke, but no beef to the cows. Classic.... Always love watching your videos and I see the cumbria way is the next one on. I'm in Cumbria and can't wait to watch it. Many thanks.
Absolutely brilliant mate enjoyed every minute of it! Well done can’t wait for the next one ❤
Totally get the blisters, I've only done 9 miles of that path in one go and it's hard on the feet, hard surfaces and loose rocks etc. Well done for getting through the whole thing especially in that heat.
Brilliant mate. Had some right laughs. Absolute quality 👌🏼
