Summer 2025: Let's walk across or around a country

This is a trial balloon to see if there are adventurous people out there who'd like to walk across or around a country in 2025.

Yes, walk across or around a whole country.

There are several such paths of about 100 or 200 miles that can be walked in a week or two. For instance, the Coast to Coast path in England, Hadrian's Wall, Offa's Dyke, the Isle of Man Coastal Path, the Wexford-Pembrokeshire Pilgrim Way, etc etc. Some have inns to stay the night, others might involve stealth camping. Some have more elevation gain and tougher terrain than others, but this isn't like climbing 14ers. It might be possible to bike parts of some routes.

The walking could be combined with other *optional* activities:

- going to football matches...

- drinking beer and eating so much fish and chips we need a mercury detox...

- almost getting arrested for lèse-majesté...

OK, those are what I'll be doing. You can choose your own activities.

The specifics for all this are open, I'm just trying to gauge interest.

If the idea of walking across a country or similar appeals to you, sign up and we'll decide from there.
