Story
I have decided to follow my dream and walk the Spanish Silverway.
Starting from Granada I will be taking on a six week trek across Spain with only six days to rest - following the Pilgrim routes my journey will begin on 1st April and end around the 14th May.
Here is an article from Outline February 09 issue (NHS):-
Peter Brookes, a post worker at CGH, has decided to take on an enormous challenge in order to raise money for LINC, (Leukaemia and Intensive Chemotherapy Fund).
Following his semi-retirement last year and before he officially retires; he has decided to fulfil a life-long dream.
Peter will endure a six-week trek acrosswhich will see him walking constantly with only six days to rest.
The walk will begin on April 1 and end around May 14.
Peter has been working for the Trust since 2004 and all his friends and colleagues wish him the best of luck for his adventure.
