This route takes in the whole of the Wales Coastal Path and Offa's Dyke. The Wales Coast Path is the first of its kind in the world, and connects with Offa's Dyke National Trail to create a unique continuous 1047 Mile path around Wales, taking in around 84,000ft of elevation along the way. The Wales Coastal Path offers 870 Miles of unbroken, unspoilt, coastal running/walking around the whole of the Welsh coast, making it one of the best trail runs in Wales. The Offa’s Dyke Path is 177 Miles long and parallel’s the border of England and Wales. The full route links Sedbury Cliffs, near Chepstow on the Severn Estuary with the coastal town of Prestatyn on the north Wales coast. The route passes through 3 areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty; the Clwydian Hills, the Shropshire Hills and the Wye Valley as well as such enticing areas as the Clun Forest, the Brecon Beacons, the Black Mountains and the Vale of Clwyd.

Keep it going Alan, an absolutely awesome achievement and so close to the end now. Blown away by your mental strength and reliance.

[@peterthomas9440]

Keep smashing out those miles Alan…amazing focus and nothing is impossible once you get over the mind hurdle.

[@Mookiethedog]

More great scenery! I love the shots where you see vast land mass and Al pushing on through it all. What a dude! The day looked blustery and there you all were getting it done. Well done Al, Katie, pup and the film crew!
