\t\t\t\tThis week my training walk took me back to the Malverns.\u00a0 I enjoyed it so much the last time, I just thought I\u2019d do it again…only this time, bigger and better.<\/p>\n

Instead of just walking one peak, I went for the full \u2018end to end\u2019 route, spanning a whole 15.8Km across the ridge of the Malvern Hills.<\/p>\n

It was a beautiful route but it was such hard work and it was easily the toughest physical exercise that I\u2019ve ever done in my life.\u00a0 Not only did the route take us from one end of the ridge to the other, it took us up and down every summit along the way!<\/p>\n

By the end of the walk the buzz of reaching any peaks was long gone and because the route wasn\u2019t circular, unless I wanted to walk another 15.8Km, it meant getting a taxi back to where the car was parked!<\/p>\n

At \u00a340 for a ride back to the car it was my most expensive walk yet but it was worth it for the training and the views were pretty spectacular too.<\/p>\n

I didn’t take the GoPro this time, but I made sure to take plenty of pictures!<\/p>\n
