Some vital statistics...

Now that the dust has settled on our walk and our aching limbs have started to recover, we wanted to take this opportunity to look back at some of our vital statistics!

So here goes...

Number of miles walked: 186 (not 18, as was published in local paper 'The County Echo)

Number of gates and stiles encountered: 593 (we didn't count...this is what it said on the internet!)

Number of blisters: 1 (a small one, on Dan's toe!)

Number of pubs visited: 25 (thanks to Steve and Tim Wise who have each sponsored us an extra £1 for each pub that we visited!)

Number of pints drunk each: 65 (approximately!)

Number of times we went in the sea between us: 3 (2-1 to Dan on this front!)

Number of people who joined us on the walk: 18 (thank you to you all for the company!)

Number of dogs who joined us on the walk: 3 (Cindie, Archie and Mims - all very well behaved!)

Number of times emergency toilet roll had to be used in conjunction with a large bush: 1 (we are not telling you which one of us it was!)

Number of old ladies in bed accidentally walked in on whilst looking for some milk: 1 (don't ask!!)

And most importantly...amount of money raised so far: £4918.61 (£5847.11 with gift aid)

With money still to come in, we are confident we will reach our £5000 target. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated or help us raise money-we really do appreciate it.

And finally a big thank you to our families and friends, and to everyone who has supported us along the way!

Tight (but slowly recovering) calves!
