First steps

This is my first foray into blogging. My first entry as I build up to my epic walk around the South West Coast pass for 31 days starting May 31st.

Yesterday March 12th was my mother's funeral, 6 days after the funeral of my wife. Just under 3 weeks ago my first grandchild, a gorgeous little girl named Lennie was born. Sadly both my wife and mother never got to meet her.

These two wonderful women have been in my life for 66 and 46 years respectively.

Today is truly the start of the rest of my life, a life so different to the one I had planned. The walk will be my focus for the next 4 months. 

Fitness wise I averaged 8 miles a day in February and will be close to 10 a day in March.

Meeting with gym PT Monday for a gym plan.
