Here’s what you need to know.
Who I am:
Alex Lagina
Why I’m doing this:
No reason really, just because I can. I hope. I also plan to write a book about it at some point, so if you’re reading this do me a favor and get your wallet out.
Everything else you can ask me in the comments, I should have internet throughout this trip and I’ll have plenty of down time to answer your burning questions about what color underwear I am wearing.
Good for you Alex. I don’t care what color your undies are, only if you have enough clean ones for the trip. Be safe & have fun!
Alex – Becky already beat me to the “mother” message, so I will no longer worry about the clean undies situation.
I’m looking foward to hearing more about your incredible journey as it unfolds. And I am SURE you can do it!
Stay safe.
Hmmm. chased by a horse on the first day! I hope this is NOT the episode we are to learn more about later. I already know the New Forest well and the horses are questionably horses… or at least, all of 10 hands at the whithers. I’m not that impressed. HOWEVER, ass chafing is a subject which sounds thoroughly intriguing. If you get that the first day you’re not going to make it much further…. Pray, do tell more.
Love…well cordial regards anyway
I can’t remain A. Nony Mouse when you demand the email address and web site, so gads, it’s me, the one whose name starts with S.
What color is your underwear?
I’d think, judging by the most recent post, khaki coloured.
Dear Alex,
Thanks for the nice and informative site. I am planning to trek from John O’groats to Lands end this summer(’10). Roughly how much did the trek cost you. I’ll be using hostels and B&Bs and maybe eat in the pubs.
Thanks
Mohamed
Mohamed,
Thanks for reading my blog! By now I imagine you’re nearly finished with your trek, so I’m afraid my answer will come too late, but I spent roughly $6,000 US, staying in B&Bs and eating at pubs most nights. On average I payed between 30 and 40 GBP per night at the B&Bs
