Today we walked a 10 mile figure of eight walk around Parnholt Wood / Farley Mount area. This is the route we are planning to do with the full team tomorrow evening in the dark and we wanted to see how far it was and how muddy it was and how long it took before tackling it at night. The answers are 10.55 miles, not very and 3 hours 4 minutes (walking time). We think it is likely we will walk slower at night due to having to take a bit more care with foot placement so it will be useful, for scheduling purposes, to know how much slower.

On our second trip along the 'waist' of the figure of eight, through Parnholt Wood, we bumped into a couple of friends who we sometimes go out walking with, they were out photographing the bluebells with their niece.

Route here as always.
