Where I thought I was going to walk<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Where possible I have tried to use established national trails, mainly to avoid walking on busy roads and <\/em>with the hope there are regular waymarkers so I can avoid having to look at a map every 5 minutes. As a second-best, I have used trails that someone has already provided directions for. The LDWA <\/a>was a useful source of information, as was The Walking Englishman<\/a>. Where I couldn’t find a trail (sections 6, 8, 10, 9c, & 15) I ‘borrowed’ route data from Adam Dawson<\/a> who did the LeJog in 2014. The Garmin links give some indication of the elevation involved. I was surprised by Offa’s Dyke!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
