Moonwalk training - 18.4 miles around Tempsford, Great Barford and Everton
What a day of walking, especially after doing lunge walks yesterday and not being able to move properly today. It started in Everton, back down the Greensand Ridge Walk and the incredibly muddy hill, back past Gibraltar Farm (for the third time). Today was a big day for rape seed, the smell as we walked was so springy. Our walk included crossing the East Coast Mainline. At Tempsford we found a very handy bench in a very quaint place, we loved the animals on top of the thatched cottages. Then a not so nice thing, walking on a bridge over the A1. Neither of us like heights.
We then walked past the anchor pub and Vanilla Alternative club, that we then googled. I thought it was a pub but nope, it's a swingers club. We walked over weirs, locks, a field of cows, a cross country horse route at Tectchworth Hall, through a field with a bull...then back to the car. With 11.5 under our belts, it was time to see our doggies for lunch.
The next walk started at Great Barford which has a gorgeous bridge over the river. We walked along the Ouse Valley Way again, Environment Agency land time and time again where I had to take the obligatory picture. We walked past Danish Camp with it's multiple breeds of duck, black swan and chickens. It was really noticeable that at Danish Camp we stopped greeting fellow walkers. The tarmac path was most welcome though and we got another 6.9 miles under our feet.
