Day 10 - St Giles Farm to Ingleby Cross, 19 miles, DONE!!

Beautiful day! Sunshine all day, no wind, high wispy clouds with scattered small cotton wool clouds (Clarke's technical weather terminology), no threat of rain all day.

As we knew the weather was good we killed some long, feet pounding, flat miles today mainly on road or track. Nick resorted to music to motivate, I chose medication to numb the pain of sore heels and a knotty, painful calf - thank heavens for ibuprofen and walking poles!!

Photo 1-breakfast in the sun with a wonderful cup of tea from the farmer.
Photo 2-lunch in Danby Wiske-breaking the rules with a lunchtime drink!

If we keep this up we'll finish a day earlier than we intended!

The day ended with a mad dash across the busy A19 - a full 6 lanes!! Thankfully we managed unscathed to walk another day.
