    Started at Hardraw, near to Hawes in the Yorkshire Dales and finished at Kirk Yetholm, in the Scottish Borders.

    GPS Jon, it was so much fun sharing so many miles with you on the PW. Thank you and well done you, massive achievement. Great video, brings back so many memories and the church... definitely an over rated place to sleep 😅

      Many thanks, could not agree with you more with regard to the church!

    Well done John, good man! Full summer spine next eh? Oh I'm doing the PW myself and using the same 67 plus Fenix. I'm going N to S and forgot to reverse the GPX file and couldn't understand why the arrow always pointed 180 off track😂 Take care now, Stephen

      We will see, I suspect the arrow being 180 degrees out on your watch would have driven me mad. A far more patient man than me!
