Rain on the way

The day started with rain. And as the morning progressed it got heavier. Things were quite bleak actually. My boots that had got me through all those puddles started to let the rain in and my sox got really wet. I was trudging through 15km without any significant landmarks to distract me. The rain did clear late morning. And when I stopped for lunch I changed my saturated sox and things did get better.

But there wasn’t much along the way today to entertain me, not even a coffee or a bakery. At one stage I was walking for 4.5km with corn on either side of me and I couldn’t see above. For much of today I considered how I’m going to stay motivated for the rest of my walk. I’m yet to find the answer.

I’ve now been walking for 4 weeks. I’m feeling exceptionally strong and I can walk a 28km day as I did today and feel quite ok at the end of it. It’s a great to feel this fit and strong. Still a very long way to go…
