What did you do this weekend...

Well I walked about 10½  miles in 3½  hours and thoroughly enjoyed it, no really I did!

It was a great day, nice breeze but not cold, no rain and not too hot. Slightly overcast but such beautiful views of our fine British Countryside.
  
      
 The things that made it really enjoyable for me were:
    Super Socks! (but not my legs)
The pace was my pace: I kept myself going at about 2/2.5mph. Such a relief after some treks where I'm walking at somebody elses pace, someone with longer legs who typically goes much faster.
  • Loving my new posh socks: I know can you believe the day has come where I'm singing the praises of a particular brand of sock?!
  • X-socks Trekking Air Step - Bliss, magic, comfortable, no blisters, wow - nuff said! For more info on my dream sock visit my friends at Trek Hire UK they're fab! http://www.trekhireuk.com/TrekkingAirStep.html
After the walk I got home, no aches, no pains. Still had a spring in my step even 24-48hrs afterwards.
I also took the opportunity to test run some different snacks to have whilst walking. Different healthy granola snacks, which were ok but could be a little tricky on the dental front - that's how hard they were. Only to be consumed whilst seated with a hot cup of tea, is what I think it should say on the packet.

However my favourite by a long way is Munchy Seeds. Have you heard of them? I must admit I hadn't, but these little zebra bags of joy are super, my fav is the Vanilla Pumpkin Seeds in these little handy size bags.


So socks and snacks is all I have for today; I know what a truly exciting life I lead.
