Given the health issues I have suffered of late I decided to revisit this walk to gauge how the fitness was doing.
It was a cool morning, breezy with cloud cover, in other words a perfect day for a walk.
From the start it was noticeable that I have picked the same day as a mountain bike club had decided to complete a ride along the South Downs Way – ho hum the path turned into a 2 wheeler motorway at times !!
I walked at a comfortable pace and covered the 9.25 miles in 3 hours, which is curiously the same time as was recorded on the 24th April, although this time I felt a lot fitter and didn’t need to even touch the drink I was carrying.
Considering this was the day after I ascended Wolstonbury Hill the level of fitness surprised me 🙂
