I'm not really sure how to find out how stupid an idea I've just had.
I like a challenge, and I like something to work towards. So I was thinking that I might walk the Oldham Way (near where I live), and raise some money for charity in the process.
I was thinking of doing a race for life or something, but I've missed that for this year.
So I'm thinking of doing it in Sept/Oct. It's 40 miles (gulp!) and it's described as 'challenging'. And it is VERY hilly.
Is it a really stupid idea to think I can do that in one day? Or would two days be more realistic, or is that just wimping out? I don't want to be a chicken, but I don't want to be the over-confident idiot that has to be rescued by mountain rescue in the middle of the night either!
