Day 6: well…I did it. 96 miles, Milngavie to Fort William. sort of. minus the parts I skipped. but I did 17 miles today and we lucked out so much with the weather. Ben Nevis greeted us into Fort William. My legs feel like they are filled with bees.

Day 5: a huge rain storm came in off the Atlantic which meant no hiking for me. my friends still went on and did 21 miles, so of course I feel like a flop in comparison, but they were miserable so whatever. I still saw some stuff and I’ll be back someday.
Day 4 of WHW: supposed to be a 14 mile day but after mile 7 I took a bus full of crabby elderly germans and cut off 3 miles so did around 11 total. rain every 10 minutes or so but it made for lovely photos when the sun was peeking out. my feet hurt.
day 3: everything hurt and I wanted to die so I took a train. I did a small side quest up to a ridge and back and it was lovely and quiet. 4 miles of peace and moss. back on trail tomorrow!
day 1 of the west highland way: around 13 miles today and it’s our easiest day. my feet are killing me but omg how beautiful. we got the most stunning weather and everything was so lush. haven’t even reached the highlands yet…but tomorrow we will. onward! (going to make a thread so mute if u want)
collecting online pals and placing them in my purse. who is next…
