Don't forget your PONCHOS
I've cut my number up into a small square and cut the words out too, then proceeded to sellotape the word Martlets above the number and Noon Walk below it before giving the whole thing a lovely laminate effect sellotape covering...
I am featuring on Blue Peter sometime next week.

Soaked through and exhausted, but good fun - and so many Albion fans on the walk too giving me heaps of encouragement along the way, thank you!
And to the anti-stadium bod also on the walk, sorry mate didn't have the energy to argue with you....but look around, the temple is built and yes it can be seen! Get a life.
Bath time now..... oh 4hrs 15mins, but lots of chocolate digested at Saltdean!

We arrived at the start just as everyone was leaving and unfortunately we just never managed to catch up. After walking into the driving rain on the undercliff walk from the marina, I am sorry to say that at Ovingdean we abandoned, because we simply couldn't face it any more.
It is truly amazing how being part of a big group spurs you on and walking on your own (my son and I) is so dispiriting. I have done the London to Brighton bike ride in the past and thought this then. No way could I do that on my own but in a group it was different.
We were so wet and cold at Ovingdean we threw the towel in (oh for a towel) and were both very disappointed to do so. I've done that walk for fun on a number of occasions, but today that weather beat us. f***ing awful.
Complete respect the heroes who completed it.
Humble in your presence guys.

main point for next year - NEVER wear jeans when your going to get soaked through. The last 30mins it felt like I was carrying another few kilos on my legs!

There were a couple of people jogging it. As we were walking down into Rotingdean they jogged past us going back to the CG. Mental

My big toe has swollen up because of the walk.
