It's A Record!

Today was Richmond to Ingleby Cross, the longest day of the walk at 24
miles, and also the longest we have ever walked. Here are Kate's feet
about 2 mins after we got to the b and b with her first blister, but
thankfully only a small one.

Blessed with good weather today and pork pie! Good job cos shins and
hips are starting to hurt, ow.

We plodded on and managed 13 miles before lunch. We stopped at a place
called Danby Wiske and stopped at the pub for an orange juice. Quite a
lot of the coasters were on the beer but we've made that mistake
before so decided to do our last 10 miles on OJ and Lucozade body fuel
- ooer!

We didn't feel too bad getting into the final few miles - until we had
to cross the A19. Apparently some walkersburst into tears at this
point, but luckily we were made of sterner stuff and darted across the
four lanes of doom without being squished. Our B&B turned out to be
half a mile from Ingleby Cross but after walking so far another half
mile to take our boots off, then another half mile to get some food,
and then another half mile to get home again is nothing! Well not
exactly nothing but after we stopped swearing we set off for fishcakes
and banana splits!
Another day tomorrow - just a quick 13 miler if memory serves...
