Story

<p>Coast to coast<br /><br />Hadrian's Wall Path National Trail is an unbroken 84 mile signposted trail stretching from coast to coast, from Wallsend in the east to Bowness-on-solway in the west. <br /><br />It passes through some of the most beautiful parts of England - from rolling fields and rugged moorland to the vibrant cities of Newcastle and Carlisle.<br /><br />The average time to walk it seems to be five days with most people taking a week. I plan to do it in three! This will mean hiking for up to 12 hours a day covering 26 miles per day.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
