Progress Update from Gael Cameron:
The walkers had a tough last few miles on Friday night, knees were causing a lot of bother. A welcome camp site with facilities and a bar awaited them at Inverarnan - the Drovers Inn was just too far to move on to. They had a reasonably sensible night, hitting the tents about 10pm. Lots of rest needed for the next stage.
Inverarnan to Bridge of Orchy was yesterday - Saturday's - walk. Rain was the main pain as they headed towards Tyndrum and then along the hillside path near the railway track to their destination, Bridge of Orchy Bunk House. The lads arrived there at 4pm yesterday evening, pretty good going to reach the 60 mile point. Jordan walked another 10 mile stretch so he has now totalled 20 miles so far, very impressive for an 11 year old. Warm showers, a bed for the night with dinner and breakfast included was a very much appreciated treat.
They are all doing fantastically well, making the families and friends at home extremely proud.
WELL DONE! Nice to hear the 'A TEAM' have yomped home in good spirits, with only aches and pains. Absolutely brilliant acheivement.
