[@nathankent8945]

You're not wrong Anthony, amazing!! So much history and stunning surroundings!! I bet you will never touch another Grenade bar in your life 🤣 Nearly there now!! Incredible journey! 👍🙏🙂

[@gregcoleman7328]

That was a long section, well done Anthony for powering through that. Hadrian’s Wall looked amazing. You are nearly there!

Hi Ant, I know you wouldn’t say this, but come on everyone out there, please make a donation to MIND before the walk ends. It’s for such a wonderful cause and Ant has undertaken an amazing journey not for the faint hearted, plus he has shared it with us all. We are with you fella! Best……

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Thanks Andy. Appreciate the words of encouragement and support

[@flalingbashers2957]

Well done Anthony the winning line is in sight the last 100 meters then a nice cold pint . It’s been stunning in the Peak District this week .

[@ChrisJB]

I did Greenhead to Bellingham too and as suprb as 'The Wall' is, beyond, to Bellingham, I found a weary trudge if I'm honest. I trust today has gone okay?....so will wish you well for the final day over the Cheviots.....which is another fantastic walk. 👍

[@gopherbar]

The look of pure excitement on your face eating that rabbit brick bar 😂 priceless, that company should sponsor you, the face of serial bars

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

They’d have to offer me some serious money to eat those things again! Makes me feel I’ll just thinking about them 🤢 😆

[@TFSOutdoors]

Hi Ant, your on the home run now, a long day of you today, you put in a really good effort, so well done. One of you camera shots of Hadrian’s Wall was exactly the same as I use as my screen saver on my phone . Although it’s busy, it’s one of the nicer parts of the wall. I bet that bath was very welcome. It’s been a great series of videos so far, and fingers crossed for you achieving 1,000 subscribers.

[@hedgehoguk5575]

Beautiful scenery; well done!

[@steveostler]

Nearly there! Hope the weather stays fine for the final few days

[@NotAnotherAdventure]

Tea, coffee, AND snacks?? Get me to that lay-by! In all seriousness Hadrian's wall looks incredible, I can see why it's so popular!

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

It’s a fab part of the Pennine Way. I really enjoyed this section. Will definitely come back and walk more of Hadrian’s wall in the future

[@TeaInValhalla]

Good morning Mr Johnson! Looking forward to this part of the walk, morning tea, big telly, let's get into it!...☕❤👍

[@TeaInValhalla]

From the castle onwards looked amazing, Kat and I would like to walk Hadrians wall at some point, such an incredible hike 🏛🪨❤🐮 Nice to bag the heightest point and use that breakfast fuel well, the wall section an the sycamore gap looked great, loved it! 🌳 Love a good unconnected style too lol congratulations on 900 subs! Amazing, think back to this time last year we had not long just meet, keep up the great videos and walks! We would subscribe again if we could 🥰👍❤ Well done on that section, very enjoyable watc and all the best for the final sections! 🧇🥞 Catch you tommroow, Ceri and Kat ☕ ❤ 🌞

[@kevinstark4294]

Wow that looked amazing. Keep it up mate - not long to go now. Congratulations on getting so many new subscribers

[@kellyshaw7271]

You're almost there now. You have done so well. When you return home, you will need a holiday just to recover. The hadrians wall stretch is notorious for being a tale of two halfs. I tend to prefer a good second half though, as you're flagging then and it picks you up. Best of luck for the rest of the trek and thank you for inspiring other's to do more 😁

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Thanks Kelly. I agree, it would have been a much better end to walk the Hadrian’s wall trail last. It was a very long day that’s for sure

[@simonthrelkeld8080]

Well done Ant for keeping going & sharing some fantastic videos of your journey 👏

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Thanks Simon. Just finished day 14. One super long day to go!

[@bob_the_bomb4508]

That wall will be a lot more impressive when it’s finished! What do you expect though when you get Italian builders in?

[@DesGreene]

Hi Anthony! Well done on a looong day!! Stunning first half, but looked like a hard slog in the afternoon! See you on the next leg👍👍

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Certainly was a long day Des. Loved Hadrian’s wall though. I’ll definitely go back and walk more of that trail in the future

[@arunsharma-dx4yn]

Instead of messing around with taxis between Bellingham and Byrness you can always continue on from Byrness to the Lamb Hill shelter about six miles further along the Way. Stay there overnight and thence to Kirk Yetholm the next day. Also means you don't have to do the 25 miles in one slog and you can include the Cheviot. Just a thought.

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Unfortunately, my accommodation is all booked and paid for so other than an emergency shelter, I haven’t got any camping gear with me. Lamb Hill sounds like it certainly be a good option though had I planned in advance. Not looking forward to a 26 mile last day

[@WalkWithWallace]

Love Adrian's Wall, one of my favourite part of North England. Never seen Sycamore Gap though. Bet the bath was amazing. 😁

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

That section of the wall was fantastic. I’ve never watched the Robin Hood film so I’ve never understand the fascination behind Sycamore Gap 😆. I’d been wading through bog all afternoon on that day so the bath was a welcome relief. I think I might go and walk the Hadrian’s Wall trail at some point so I can spend a bit more time immersing myself in the history etc

[@WalkWithWallace]

@@AnthonyJohnson1 that would be decent, circa 100 miles I believe.

[@DaveGoodman1959]

👍I think the bit I enjoyed most was Bellingham to Byreness. Don't know why. Nearly there. 👍

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Probably because you knew the end was in sight. I didn’t enjoy today as much as it seemed a slog along that forestry track for endless miles

[@ramblingracheltrailtales]

Hi! Congratulations on reaching 900 subs, big benchmark. When you were walking along Hadrian’s Wall, it brought back good memories of my thru-hike. It’s definitely worth revisiting the middle section of this trail. Glad to hear your accommodation was much better than previous days. Great video. Nearly there now 😀

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Thanks Rachel. Loved that section of the wall. I’ll definitely come back and spend more time there learning about the history etc

[@WinchcombeWanderer]

Go Anthony Go, not far now. ATB Simon

[@safromnc8616]

I'm wondering if the whole of the Hadrian's Wall Trail is all quite busy, or you were just crossing through a 'busy section' ? My be a fun trail to explore.

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

I think it’s a popular trail. The section I walked is where most of the wall is so it must attract a lot of day visitors too. I might walk the Hadrian’s Wall trail next year as I did enjoy the 10 miles of it that I walked

[@safromnc8616]

@@AnthonyJohnson1 I was going to say same - I did look it up as I had only heard the name - 73 miles I think - only 3 days for you mate !

[@WAFC2]

Great shift yesterday bud. I ended my day knee deep in that same bog with wet boots and socks. Camped in some forest and spent the evening drying my boots off by a fire! All the best for your last 2 days. P.S. What football team do you support? 😋

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

Definitely a tough day yesterday wasn’t it. Loved Hadrian’s Wall though. Thought it was spectacular in places. A camp in the Forest must have been fab. Very secluded around there. For my sins, I’m a Nottingham Forest supporter, so it’s been great not having to watch the games while I’m out walking here! Have another great day today Toby 👍

[@AMostlyFunctionalJess]

I think I'm mostly impressed that you have the patience to edit videos on your phone 🤣

[@AnthonyJohnson1]

I’ll certainly be glad to have a break from editing videos that’s for sure

[@AMostlyFunctionalJess]

You'll absolutely deserve it!
