Training Walk 2

Yesterday evening we went on our second training walk. We started from the hospital (Dad was there for a scan) and stopped to get a couple of tins from Tesco for our dinner before heading up the hill from the roundabout at the end of Hatters Way. While we were at Tesco we saw people collecting for Luton Foodbank and we said hello. One of them said he recognised me.

We reached out planned camping site very quickly, and pitched our tent in the woods just as it was getting dark. It was VERY cold out but when we got into the tent and into our sleeping bags we were nice and warm. I fell asleep straight away.

In the middle of the night I woke up and Dad said "Can you hear that?" and there was an owl hooting very nearby.

We couldn't get back to sleep so we decided to pack up the tent and continue our route. We walked through a golf course by the light of the moon and went through two villages before going through Stockwood Park and finishing up back in Luton. When we got home we had a hot drink and a biscuit then went to bed.


We covered 11.73km between the hospital and home.
