No 288 - LEJOG World Record Attempt
from The Outdoors Station
Lands End to John O'Groats or LEJOG as it is better known is one long distance walking and cycling trip in the UK, that most people consider at some stage in their outdoors life. It isn't as massive as the Appellation Trail, or as wild and dangerous as walking to the North Pole say, but it does seem to be ingrained into the core of every British citizen as 'the long one'. At around 900 miles as the crow flies, we have the option to take the rambling rural high road of costal paths and walking trails, or the fastest route either by bike or on foot. David Stevens has decided to tackle the route in April 2010 running 60 miles a day, to attempt a world-record and raise funds for some worthy causes in the process. Totally unsupported (its against the rules) and on his own, carrying all that he needs, he is setting out to beat the current record of 17 days. This is an extreme lightweight trip!
