Well nearly! Training it to Taunton to be picked up by a taxi to take us to Minehead where the walk starts.
Very nice to be heading in the other direction this morning while people pack into the (delayed) trains going into London after so many years of doing the same!
Our train is nearly empty :-)
Many people have kindly asked why I am not doing this for charity and if they can sponsor me on some way. I am really touched by this. Since this is a long term ambition, I wasn't expecting it but I have set up a just giving page for anyone who wants to donate here: http://www.justgiving.com/Steve-Schrier
Meningitis irreversibly affected our family when Oscar, our 4-year old nephew was tragically taken from us. It happens very quickly and there is no known cure. People who survive are often very badly disabled. Any donation you make will go towards trying to find out more and potentially finding a way to prevent this disease. Thank you.
