Hi,
I am Chris from near Devizes in Wiltshire.
Used to be an outdoor activity instructor over 30 years ago. Doing voluntary work when in the RAF with RAF personnel, their children and with the social services looking after problem children.
As the years went on this great hobby got pushed aside once we started our own business.
Earlier this year after my folks passed away, we decided to spread some of their ashes on Pen-y-Ghent a favourite location of theirs. So I thought I better get back in the swing of walking! I was still fairly fit as I have a gym in my office and used it as often as I could, but definitely not enough!
Subscribed to ViewRanger and signed up to their 1500 mile challenge on 11th April 2017. Currently as of today I have completed 865.5 miles and am on target to complete well before the end of the year.
I am fortunate enough that my work with the UK water companies takes me all over the country. I take my motorhome and as an early riser I nearly always get a walk in first thing.
Looking forward to seeing what the forum has to offer and definitely have some questions I need answered which may of course already be somewhere here!
Regards
Chris
