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, 1 seal, 0 basking sharks, lots of chips and 1 overweight, oversized backpack.©2017 Stephen Reynolds (P)2018 W.

I did enjoy this amusing story along the SW Coast path which I'm planning on doing myself one day, but the overuse of 'Dear Reader' was a bit grating. Also, 600 miles is about 1,200,000 steps which is a lot more than the 26,000 he said he did!

An enjoyable ramble.

A tale of one man's journey on the South West Coast Path. Lots of giggles and a good thru hiking story.

Nice hiking story

A good listen overall with a light touch and enough detail and anecdotes to keep you engaged. The rather constant alliteration and analogies becomes wearing though. Not so much a guide book but an insight in taking yourself out of your comfort zone and pushing yourself. Perhaps the number of pubs, hotels and B&B’s didn’t make it the hardship it might have been, money seemingly not an issue and a diet of mars bars, cheese, chips and pepperoni an unusual way to last for two months. But listening whilst walking was enjoyable and I’ve downloaded the next book.
