About this listen

What happens when a 37-year-old office worker, who exercises marginally less than the average cheese sandwich, decides to walk 630 miles of challenging coastline in one go? Will he go on an epic voyage of self-discovery...or just get really knackered?

Find out the answers to these important questions, and many more, by joining him on a grand adventure that takes in 26,719 steps, 921 stiles, 302 bridges, 91,000 feet of climbing and descending, one seal, zero basking sharks, lots of chips and one overweight, oversize backpack.

A lovely journey of the south west coast path. This book made me laugh out loud so many times, smiled a whole many more and I cried too!
So rich in stories and experiences that it makes you want to walk the sw coast path. Such a feel good read.

What a journey!

It was good to listen to during the lockdown and give me some inspiration to keep going and prepare for my next long distance walking trips when it's permitted.

A realistic account, funny at times

It started off being a really amusing story but by the time we had raced through to Land's End I began to find it repetitive and lacking in detail. It was as if it was done in such a hurry there was no real time to sit and drink in the atmosphere. All in all a bit of a disappointment and didn't live up to my expectations. In the end I found it rather boring and samey.

A bit disappointed
