So what have I learnt from this experience?

A lot!

This hasn't been just about training for a walk.  For me, this has been almost a journey of self discovery - sorry for the cliche!

I've learnt things about myself that I never knew before.  Spending hours out walking on your own, no computers, no phones etc, gives you time to think.  And to reassess your life and what direction you're heading.

I've got fitter and healthier, and have developed a love for the outdoors.  Something I've never really had before.

I've achieved something that even that day, I didn't think I would achieve.  Proved to myself that I could do it - and to everyone else who doubted me.

I've seen parts of Jersey (and now Guernsey) that I've never seen before.  Spoken to people I would never have met.

Photos from my journey can be found here

If you've been reading this, then thank you.  And I hope you've enjoyed it.  It was initially meant more as a diary, so that I could look back and remember the journey I have taken to get here.
