Hiking across England

No, I don't remember how I came up with the idea for this trip. I was probably searching for hikes in Wales since as anyone who knows me knows; hiking in northern Wales, well, north Wales in general, is my favorite activity/place on earth. Somewhere I found a reference to this coast to coast walk in England - starting in the Irish Sea and finishing in the North Sea and I became obsessed.
I've done some hard trips before. My sister and I biked from Seville to Granada in 2005. I must have been sleeping in the geography class which talked about the Sierra Nevadas. That trip was about 50 miles a day with some awful climbs and it was lovely but there were days when I didn't think I could sit on a bike for another minute. I've kayaked in Alaska and in British Columbia. Both trips required me to push myself beyond my comfort level as I don't have upper arm strength. In some ways, it was empowering. So here I go again. With an outfitter - not camping out - we'll be picked up and brought to a B&B every night. We'll meet up two weeks from today and I cannot wait!
