Trial By Mud: Third Day – Walked The Offa’s Dyke
Delayed by a late breakfast, the intrepid hikers were already late on the pitch. This proved a costly delay. He went on the road from Redbrook to Llantilio Crossenny other 13 miles on foot. The good news is that they only continue their backpack for a walk. Your bags are transported every day to the next stop for them.
You go through some beautiful green countryside and farms. Finally, he was cared for at a small town where they stopped for a coffee and bought some lunch. Continued throughout the city and beautiful landscapes. E ‘was here, that it reaches the real mud!
In the final episode of their work by a flood, but the day was the process through the muck. In some places they passed the closed camps have four inches deep in very wet mud sticky and slippery, and it was mile after mile. Walking in the mud is very stressful when you have so much energy trying to track just to stay upright. But the “Fab Four”, through the mud brown beat up, although they never completely free of all days. Eventually, it was less an obstacle to their progress. The song “Mud, mud, glorious mud” was the song of the day. It was very happy that not a drop of rain, even though it threatened rain all day.
As the mud unexpected delays and they do not start their property on the farm until 17:30 clock, which meant he walked the last few miles in the dark, and yes, wallow in mud. Without a way, and with only rudimentary signs armed to the four hikers walk the paddock in the dark for an hour to find their way. They were certainly happy to come to the yard. An elderly couple welcomed Welsh weary hikers. The woman is a poet and had written many poems about the mud in Wales. More stories of mud not inspire hikers, especially after a day of hiking in the fresh mud and Welsh brown mud.
To date it has not rained, but survived their luck? Will handle potentially flooded other parts of the track? And what about the mud, it is too late? Rain and snow waiting for them on the next part of the track?
