Walked 16 miles today. We knew it was gonna be hot so we left at 7am so we'd be back before midday and miss the worse of the heat. Didn't quite work out. Ended up boiling, soaked in sweat and sunburnt. Got an ice cream on the way back and it was melting quicker than I could eat it. My feet were killing me for the last couple of miles. Turns out I've got three blisters. I've been limping about ever since. Worth it though. That's the longest training walk we've done and it took just over four hours. If we can manage 15 minute miles in that heat, we shouldn't have any trouble on the night.
Watched Ashes to Ashes finale when I got back. Might have cried a bit.
