A 30km training walk from Sea Mills to Portishead Marina and back again. With Rich in attendance on this occasion, the rain came down every time he took his rucksack cover off. Plenty of breaks between showers albeit a little chilly toward the end of the day. Hard going on the feet and legs. @JonnyC: A generally pleasant walk, although the tarmac took it's toll. Started just after 0900hrs and completed in 8.5hrs with a moving average pace a little over 4km/h over the 30km. Great to be out trainin ...
An ODP training walk around Burrington and Blagdon. At last we were able to meet with Rich for this one. Originally destined to be 18km we rerouted on the last leg bringing us down to 16.5km with ascent of 545m. Packs were 13, 10 and 8kg, weather fresh but good. @JonnyC: More ascent than our previous training walks but with a reasonable distance and moderate to light packs. A great chance to catch up with Rich, and a great route he devised also. The weather was kind, and there was even a snippet ...
A circular walk between the two Severn bridges. Fresh, dry weather. 16km @JonnyC: A pleasant walk planned at about 14.5km but totalling 16km, moving avg just over 4kmh. Danka had 10.5kg and I had 11.5kg. Buying of new walking shoes delayed our start and pushed the end into darkness. Kids did really well.
A late afternoon Sunday stroll around Old Sodbury. 16km in gentle but chilly weather, 11kg pack for Jon. 4kmh overall average. @JonnyC: A very pleasant figure of eight stroll as recommended by osmaps. Started a touch later than intended, but still a good walk. Danka noticed there were a couple of (very small) hills in this one.

From Sea Mills to Portishead and return. 31km, 8.5hrs, 6.5hrs mov, appx 4.5km/h mov avg @JonnyC: With slightly loose plans and route we started out from Sea Mills station and walked the kids to Babka's house, thereafter making our way to Avonmouth bridge, past all the car storage yards and onward to Portishead marina. The return route deviated along the Avon through the woods. Weather was very friendly to us, and ...
