I thought of that while riding my bicycle.

Pennine Way Day 2

 Elslack



Well, damp under foot has a whole new meaning. 


It's rained quite a bit lately including most of today - I've spent most of the day avoiding sinking. My feet were wet but as long as they were above ground level I was happy. 


The walk over the moor pleased me, I day dreamed along, listening to my book and trying to keep vaguely to the path. The farm fields were more of a challenge. I realised eventually that this approach wasn't going to get me to the hotel this side of night fall. 


For the last few miles I decided to follow the road, adding distance but doubling my speed. 


Maybe the dawdling helped because I got to the hotel feeling quite ok.
