Welcome to our blog! On here, Liam and I will be updating you as much as possible on our progress, location, fall-outs, the weather and (most probably) BLISTERS. We may even include video diaries, and pictures of things we've seen (Liam's calves).
Thank you so much to everyone that has helped us get this far, including those who have donated and attended our events. We're incredibly grateful If you've been unable to make our events so far, and would like to donate, please visit our justgiving site:

Any amount is very welcome, and every single penny is going to the Chernobyl Children's Project (UK). Any expenses Liam and I incur will be covered with our own money - since this will possibly be one of the biggest adventures of our lives!!
We think we now have everything we need to get going, from walking poles and wicking clothing (very exciting!) to mp3 players and laptops to distract ourselves from the pain of walking from Land's End to John O'Groats and, of course, to distract ourselves from each other.
We would also like to thank all those kind B+B owners and others who have kindly offered to put us up for the night free of charge. We have been utterly bowled over by the generosity of the British public.
That's all for now - good luck to those of you who are about to watch England get knocked out! I'm off for a walk.
Alex
