Ultralight NON STOP walk of the Ridgeway 87 miles re edit

[@PaulOutdoors]

The force will be you both Sandy...all of us and more. Happy wandering. Paul :)

[@PaulBuikema]

87 miles in 40 hours non stop, holy crap Sandy, that's an immense goal, best to you!

[@RS.Outdoors]

Good luck Sandy. Positive attitude and you will do fine. Amazes me when folks push the boundaries like that. Slightly more extreme is the likes of Pual Giblin a runner who smashed the record for racing Scotland's most famous long-distance path, the West Highland Way. Paul Giblin finished the gruelling 95-mile trail race in just 14 hours, 20 minutes and 11 seconds. Still find it hard to get my head round that one. Anyway all the best with your adventure. Ray.

[@thelonerambler3369]

Great light weight kit you've got there Sandy. I'm looking forward to seeing your video of you fine gents on the trek. Fingers crossed you succeed dig deep you shall smash it. All the best.

[@phillippayne8170]

look forward to seeing the next vid good lucky Sandy and crew kind regards Phil from Oz

[@lynnmoore2664]

Best of luck Sandy & Alan and you can't fail you may fall short of your goal but that's not a fail in my eyes!

[@English.Andy1]

Gentlemen I wish you the very very best of luck. My hat goes off to you for even trying such a feat. Take care on the trail & keep safe.

[@Dustypilgrim1]

All the best to you Sandy... Massive kudos for even attempting it. Hell, praise for even thinking about it . One of the most notable military forced marches ever made in our History was The Light Division's march to fight at Talevera in 1809, during the Peninsular War . They covered 250 miles in six days. You will be aiming at matching their mileage rate . Doing that for even a day , out of regular training, and past the 'early flushes of youth' will be a major achievement. Two days will be immense . Don't take this the wrong way , but those lads were a lot younger than you , or , certainly, me. Most of the buggers that were 'our' ages had probably been in the ground a while... There's no such thing as a fail here Sandy, only how much you achieve ... Power to the pair of you ...

[@stealthandy638]

o good luck Sandy . remember the foot powder lol .I'd love ta go on a walk like that . thanks for sharing . ATB

[@melvinhowell5469]

Sandy...only watched this on the morning of July 13...hope you made it, and whether or not you were able to complete the walk without stopping, I applaud both of you for making the attempt. Very inspirational...thank you!

[@funkyprepper]

tip once the final edit is finished - watch the whole video on a large screen. i call it "proofing" - any thing that needs fixing can be re done at this stage. then when your happy you can render. i often do little tweaks at this stage, little bit of music here and an overlay image there. put the effort and that little bit extra in and its usually works out fine in the end. roach had to re edit a whole video once because he had his name and address on a letter in the background. attention to detail mate ;)

[@dazd6549]

All the Best Sandy & Alan. Looking forward to seeing the footage of your trip. :)

[@AndyWragg]

Good luck on your challenge Sandy. You should be on your way by now. Remember to drinking plenty, eat often - small bits all the time to maintain energy levels. Change your socks at the half way point. ATB Andy

[@KennethKramm]

Wow Great personal challenge. Sixteen pounds is light, including food and water is certainly ultralight. Great information about pack contents. Nice. Can't wait to see a video from the trail. Good luck Sandy and Alan. Stay safe on your walk. ...ken

[@daveevans2261]

Blimey Sandy you will be on Pen y Fan next doing selection, good luck to you both. 👍🇬🇧🍻 Sore feet and knees ahead. 😁

[@WiltshireMan]

I've done Pen y fan 4 times Dave

[@chrisg4270]

Good luck Sandy and Alan on the Ridgeway adventure/endurance trip.

[@andreafluffkitten]

Best of luck to both of you, hope, you succeed and that no matter what you enjoy the experience. Nice kit, looks well thought through.

[@stellap.6664]

Very nice UL gear there and I wish Alan and you the best on your walk!

[@RobertMcKenzie]

Good luck Sandy (and Alan) on the walk.. it's gonna be bloody hard I expect but you guys will do it!

[@LFH02]

Very best of Luck, I am sure you will enjoy even with the non stop walking. Still stretching yourselves. Great

[@zalkona5051]

Go for it, Sandy!!!

[@thegreenknight2658]

Looking forward to watching the "ordeal". Hope you both have a good 'un.

[@WyeExplorer]

I've just read about the charity Sandy. A worthy cause. An experiment in going light then. How far will it let you go? All the way hopefully. So best of times - keep an eye on your body. All the best. Mark.

[@DDan61]

Hi Sandy, can't wait to see your adventure on video!! Have fun and be safe! Atb Dan

[@sydsmith809]

Best foot forward boys... Respect.

[@ScotsWildcamper]

Best of luck to you and Alan , i said i'd donate on other vid , i did. Theres no fail only doing your best ! I hiked for about 12 hours with over 50lb and that was enough for me. I should be doing my first long distance walk this year.Atb.

[@robertclarke7274]

Good luck Sandy I have no doubt that your both do it!

[@johnpatterson4558]

all the best of luck on the ridgeway.

[@kimbullock475]

You'll succeed Sandy.Never seen you fail yet.... Can't wait for the walk video.... ATB,hope all goes well. Cheers.....

[@arkansaswoodsman1582]

Best of luck Sandy

[@charlottejpriestley8934]

I would require a portable defibrillator I think! Geez, that's a big challenge! There's a book called "Wild" by Cheryl Strayed who hiked the entire Pacific Northwest Trail alone. I think she was insane in a good way. What a book. As you can see, I'll read and watch the adventure and use my health issues as my excuse. Actually, it's valid. Roar to you, go get em!

[@OllyParryJones]

Best of luck to you both and I look forward to seeing how you got on. :-)

[@bonnie43uk]

Good luck, I'm happy to donate.

[@mossybark8753]

good luck both of you

[@amgolfer3591]

There will be a well deserved pint waiting for you at the red lion! I hope the weather is good for you

[@runforfunken]

Good luck guys.Pace yourselves & keep fueling the machine regularly.If you feel unwell or any injury then stop immediately.Enjoy.

[@lesmullins]

good luck on your trip. i have peen watching your videos and funky and been enjoying them all. i hope to get started here soon in doing the same thing. but my name is missed spelled it is suposed to be crazy prepper. but i hope to see more out of you two. i also hope to find some great places here in the states.

[@rattytattyratnett]

I did the walk in 48 hours as part of a challenge when I was 18. I regretted doing it as I never got to see any of the scenery as I had my head down all the way. My knees were sore weeks afterwards.

[@Kenwaldek]

enjoy your walk

[@rickonnye2001]

Well done great video 😀😀😀

[@MrReynard67]

Good luck Sandy and Alan

[@gordyandellen]

Just curious, did you consider ditching the sleep system? If you don't plan to stop then it would seem like additional weight. What are you wearing on your feet for this event? Anyway, ignore me! Best of luck, I really wish you all the best. GJ

[@neanderthaloutdoors9202]

Fare play to the both of you and the best of luck, hope you make it and iff you don't you gave it your best shot, don't knacker yourself out for next week lol, see you soon mate, atb,.

[@mrbluenun]

Eat all your food at the first stop and it will make a good difference! ha ha ha. Good Sandy, I sincerely wish you well and however long it takes as your personal achievement it takes some beating! I realise you are much healthier than but it is still an amazing challenge given your previous walk along the same I walked 5 miles when my dads car broke down at well gone midnight, and this was way before mobiles., and it nearly killed me. I realise you are much healthier than I but it is still an amazing challenge given your previous walk along the same route.

[@windhamcabin]

I watched it again just for the inspiration :)

[@mountains_and_moors]

Best of luck guys 😀👍🏻

[@ptonpc]

Good luck you two. Are you taking a water filter just in case?

[@ajs_custom_blades2176]

[@Baht300]

Chok dee

[@matbarnett2664]

I’m thinking about soloing the ridgeway, never done it before hopefully gonna do it in 6 days

[@WiltshireMan]

6 days should be fine. Time to take it all in.

[@matbarnett2664]

Wiltshire Man hopefully, was looking at down bags ( rab ascent 700) what sleeping bag would you recommend

[@Celtic-Silver-countryman]

That's what I call fortitude ! you say that the dehydrated food does not agree with you, or is it the Thames river water you add to it ? Good Luck for the walk.

[@captnaidy6122]

Good Luck PEACE :-)

[@gjohnint]

Hi Sandy, Did you manage this and have you posted the vid.?

[@WiltshireMan]

[@RDPproject]

[@LarryVickery]

Ultralight, cheers. Nonstop, not so good! Why not saunter and savor the miles? Anyway, as they say on the USA AT...hike your own hike. Goodspeed!

[@WelshGallivanter]

Good luck, you're going to need some radox after that!

[@couchcamperTM]

[@evoermine]

I thought on your last attempt it was the salami that gave you problems? Wishing you all the best.

[@modestadventurers]

If anyone can do it, it's you Sandy. Atb and to care.

[@mrbluenun]

You said "its a long way to walk", it is actually 3 and a half Marathons, or twi TWIX!

[@fredjpearce5962]

Are you mad! Ha Ha, and no CGI, Spiellberg will be dissapointed.

[@alanprince1702]

[@English.Andy1]

Good luck Alan. All the very best in your quest.

[@davidevans752]
