Name

Chris Bentley Walking and Rambling

Description

I started hiking in June 2022 after watching hikers on the PCT. I knew I could never undertake such a long distance hike but I knew we had a lot of stunning scenery in the UK. I started the Ethel Challenge June 2022 and completed it in March 2023. If it were not for covid and the British weather I could have completed it sooner. But it isn't about speed or the destination, it's about the journey.

After the Ethel Challenge I decided to undertake The 88 Trig Point Challenge. There was quite a few pointless Ethels and with the new challenge I knew there would be a goal, a view, a Trig as the culmination of the hike. The difference between these two challenges for me is my planning. I will be, wherever possible, hiking circular routes and taking in more views, more scenery, and just taking my time.

And finally, I would like to thank my wife Amanda for believing in me when I didn't. Amanda, without you I am nothing, with you I am complete.
