Walking |Lands End - John Ó Groats|Episode 1

Here it is! the long awaited by family and friends, and only half a year later. my video of my walk I undertook last year. stretching over 70 days, 1,286 miles, Three countries and one mountain I invite you to join my journey as I documented it.
I didn't get to get as much footage as I would have loved to only have two camera batteries, but if you would like to see my day to day photo blog of the journey you can on the instagram below, along with a just giving page for anyone willing to donate to the cause I walked for.
There will be few more episodes after this one coming out weekly.
Thankyou.

Was that a solar panel on the back of that girls backpack? So sick, so clever

[@YourElliott]

Yes ! Brilliant idea when you get a big enough one to cover area, but only works great in brilliant/perfect sun condition.

​​@@YourElliott not so my friend. I've been carrying an Anker one for 5 years now and even on a cloudy day it still brings in enough charge for my phone and GoPro. The trick is to charge a power bank instead of the device its self also usb 3 charging power banks charge so much quicker than usb 2 . On a very sunny day I could sell some juice back to the national grid It produces so much!🙂😎

[@JohnSmith-df4vb]

@@snowymatrix what powerbank would you recommend?

[@tremexslayze8538]

How fit u think u got to be to be able to do this?

[@Tommi23]

I am currently training for this -
You need to be capable of walking a loaded 32km / 20miles a day (normally 20%body weight I’m 80kg my pack is 18kg with 6 days food) for 61 days. Total of 2000km / 1200miles. This is the route in the book suggested at the start of the video - It’s gonna be brutal 😊
