Bloggin’ the Blog
Posted by Mark Moxon on 3 April 2008
My tubewalk has been blogged, and it was a lot less painful than it sounds. I’ve also received my first few donations, and a big thanks to everyone who’s put their hands in their pockets. I love you, just in a hands-off kind of way. 
My first blog mention is courtesy of a walker for whom I have nothing but admiration. I met Alan Sloman via my Land’s End to John o’Groats website, while he was planning his Big Walk of 2007 (a 1687-mile hike from south to north). His blog is a great read, and not only has he given me a right royal write-up, he’s dug into his own pockets and donated to the cause. What a nice man.
Another nice man who’s blogged me is Daryl May, who is currently walking from John o’Groats to Land’s End, having done it the other way round last year. Daryl, who hails from sunny Florida, is another LEJOGger whom I met through my site, and his blog is a fun read, particularly for those of us who’ve done the End-to-End. Ah, the memories! Thanks for mentioning my tubewalk, Daryl, and here’s to a celebratory ale or two when you make it back to London.
Meanwhile, I’m hoping to publish my walking route in the next day or so, so you can see exactly what I’m planning. Then I’ll tot up the miles, break it down into days and come up with a schedule, so if anyone fancies joining me for a station or two, you’ll be able to take your pick. Everyone’s welcome!
