Story

I will be walking just over 60 miles along the Leeds Country Way - that’s double the ‘Big 30’ challenge!!


I’ll be splitting the 62 miles into 6 sections and walking around 10 miles at a time to make sure that I’m home by dark. Thanks to Winter for the short days! ❄️ 


Although I’d love to make the challenge as difficult as possible and would love to do it all in a week, I’ve got a lot of study deadlines coming up, so will be doing a section each week:


Week 1

- Golden Acre to Lofthouse Lodge (5 miles)

- Lofthouse Lodge to Scarcroft Hill (5 miles)

10 miles in total


Week 2

- Scarcroft Hill to Barwick-in-Elmet (4 miles)

- Barwick-in-Elmet to Garforth (5 and a half miles)

9 and a half miles in total


Week 3

- Garforth to the River Aire (5 and a half miles)

- River Aire to Carlton (6 and a quarter miles)

11 and 3/4 miles in total


Week 4

- Carlton to East Ardsley (5 miles)

- East Ardsley to Scotchman Lane (5 and a half miles)

10 and a half miles in total


Week 5

- Scotchman Lane to Cockersdale (4 miles)

- Cockersdale to Thornbury (5 and half miles)

9 and a half miles in total


Week 6

- Thornbury to A65 near Rawdon (5 and a half miles)

- A65 near Rawdon to Golden Acre Park (5 miles)

10 and a half miles in total
