Moonwalk training - 23 miles and twice around Grafam Water





The maiden voyage for the bum bags. You can get a serious amount of stuff in a bum bag, but you also have to push through the barrier of social stigma. We have been to Grafam so many times that now we know where to park for free, especially at 7:30 in the morning! We parked in Perry and did our first circuit of 9 miles, with a first stop at a closed visitor centre. I have to admit it, but I like Gafam Water without people, it's so incredibly peaceful.

One loop down, lets do it again. This time with an espresso stop. Bum bags really are amazing, although I called it by it's American name for an hour before Ali realised it was actually true and that is what they call them. She wanted to curl up when I said it loudly at the visitor centre. Our last huge walk done, ready for the big event.
