Durham hillwalking

Saturday 14 February

Plans have collapsed so now walking locally from Allensford on the Consett heritage trail. 11am start (or 10.30 if you fancy breakfast at the cafe first!)

About 6 miles on easy paths mostly…interesting sculptures and bits. Weather forecast sunny and dry - it’s a miracle…ha ha.

Dog friendly…anyone fancy joining me?

Saturday walks are back,,,whoop whoop! Gentle start and I was Billy no mates, but I did have the company of a kestrel and a buzzard. Only out the back but covered 6k which is the longest walk I’ve done for two months. Asymmetry at 24% which is the lowest for 5 months, no pain killers and 3k an hour. Even got a hill…Beacon hill with a view of the cathedral. Pleased to rest with a flask of soup part way and knackered now but happy.
Onwards and upwards and hopefully people will start to join me on future walks. I am here all of February working on fitness and rehab so there will be a walk every Saturday of some sort.
