43:29 Absolutely loved Alicja's commentary there, "Walking ten meters apart in silence." Steve turns around, "What?" Alicja: "Nothing." Steve later edits the video and includes that part. Genius!
Blister prevention: 1) Avoid cotton socks, or indeed socks with any % of cotton. 2) Wearing two thin pairs of socks is better than wearing one thicker pair. This allows the socks to move against each other rather than moving your flesh over your bones, which causes heat and causes blisters. 3) Pure Merino wool is the best (check they dont have a % of cotton), Failing that, get 100% synthetic. I wear polyester/nylon blend. 4) As your inner pair of socks you can buy anti blister nylon liners, or women's no show (nylon tights material) work well. 5) Carry some moleskin with you to put on any hotspots. As soon as you feel the hotspot apply the moleskin, don't wait or now its a blister.
Fantastic advice and very much noted!
I think you must have a uni degree in socks. This is amazing information. 😂
@MGE9436 Thanks, please send all your sock centered questions to me. (Just a guy that gets blisters and has google looking for solutions. The two layers of thin socks works for me)
Its a bit OTT lol. Just tread on . Worry later were a long time dead to be thinking how much cottons in my sock 😂🦧. Feet are feet they bilster they heal but the memories last forever ⛰️⛰️🌏
@phillylarkin.s1930 It is not too hard, buy some nice socks without cotton, the info is on the label, put them on. Left foot, right foot repeat. Spend time enjoying the walk. Happy Socksgiving to you.
I'm so impressed with the two of you. I'm exhausted and I'm sitting here on my tuchus with my feet up. Thank goodness you're Weis enough to take good care of your blisters. those things can turn nasty fast. Way to gut it out Alicja! Can't wait for the rest. Be well, stay safe, love from Texas.
Steve - a few tips for these long-distance walks. Stop often, dry the feet, use foot powder on them, change to dry socks [Carry extras] and for inclement weather possibilities, carry at least two plastic grocery-type shopping bags per person. You wear the bags over your socks but inside the shoes to keep out rain and puddles. They are especially handy when restarting after soaking your footgear and it hasn't dried out thoroughly. Use them as a poor man's Wellington like @ 17:06, if you will.
For the blisters, there are blister adhesive tape packs available [Moleskin], to shield and cushion a forming hot spot but there are differing schools of thought on opening them yourself. Let the body reabsorb the liquid or lance them carefully and blot up the fluid should they tear or burst. It's the body's way of making a temporary cushion but they certainly can be painful. I would have colored the air around me with salty language personally. Great effort you two!

Fantastic advice, and noted!!! We live and learn :D
Thanks so much Kate! It sure was a slog to get round but the scenery and company certainly helped :) All the best from both of us!
We been taught that the Locals prononce Anstruther as ‘Enster’!
MOD base and the Dockyard does get right in the way in West Fife.
Preston Island lagoons caused by residue from now demolished Longannet Power Station being currently capped from local decommissioned opencast mine. Preston Island will hopefully as planned be converted back fully to the wild. Good few deer to be found as it is.
Loving your videos as usual.
Cheers for the info Gordon! :)
My god guys....what an absolutely amazing video! I'm now convinced that you are both crazy....walked 28 miles first day!!!!! Poor Alicja....that girl must really love you, anyone else would have have said "on your bike, I'm getting the bus" but despite the blisters and pain she kept going on! What a girl, and well done to you for doing it all on foot! Only thing that worried me on this epic journey is that you didn't treat Alicja to a fish supper in Anstruther which is world famous for it's "best fish and chips in the world"....maybe next time eh! You guys are epic....I take my hat off to you both....the mileage you've covered on foot is just amazing. What an incredible video.....amazeballs! 😎😎😎👍
Thanks so much mate! haha I must admit it felt surreal in Anstruther to see people going about their normal lives, eating ice cream, fish and chips, as we stumbled through in another dimension :D Must set the record straight though - Alicja has been treated to that very meal a while back, and even a wee poke of sweeties after :)
@@steve-marsh ......nice one Steve. Coming from Northern Ireland with an Ulster Scots background I even know what "a poke of sweeties" is! Lol 😁😁😁👍
That was me with the dog just outside Pittenweem, I thought you were still looking pretty fresh when I saw you at that point, you obviously hid the pain well! Congrats on completing the trail, it's given lots of inspiration for some more days out on the coast. Having only recently moved to Scotland, your videos have given us loads of ideas for trips out & things to see.
BUT WHAT'S YOUR DOG'S NAME??? :D Cheers George, was great to meet you! Keep up the awesome running, you looked a bit fitter than us :D
Ha, he's called Billy! I'm impressed, usually people remember the dog far more than me.
I might have looked ok at the time but there's no way I'd have hacked walking the whole coastal path in under a week, well done guys.
I was once a hiker...not now at 80 years old. Never the less I do remember how not to get blisters. waring two pairs of socks, wool of course. The pair that's next to the skin should be thin and a snug fit. The second a little more chunky. The idea of the two pair is that when the sock chafes it's going to chafe the first pair instead of you feet. Believe me it works.
We have been enjoying your videos and the travels you share ,You are a cute couple too ..God bless you both * We are fom up North Michigan .when we were younger we hiked alot too .42 years here together we still get out n about ....
Absolutely brilliant vlog. Fife really has lots of beautiful quaint little towns and villages. I did feel for Alicja though 🤗. Nothing worse than trying to walk with blisters 😩. Really looking forward to part 2. We thoroughly enjoy all your videos which inspire us to get out more. Thank so much for sharing them all with us. 👍
Thanks so much Wendy! She was a superstar - put in so much more effort than me with those chewed up feet!
Very brave taking on this length of walk with feet that will blister. I live in Fife and prefer driving through these villages with the open top down. That Burntisland high tide route is most definitely not flat!
Gosh you 2 were amazing on this part..we were exhausted for you..lovely to watch..thanks so much ❤
It’s all postcard perfect, especially since I’m not the person walking. Thanks for sharing and I’m looking forward to the next part.
Haha thanks Doris! :)
As I watch all the towns you go through all the houses and locations - your helping me to work out where I want to live when I move back to Scotland. Too many choices just in this one video today.
Same Liam! I'd be happy in most of those places for sure!
Oh fantastic video you walked past my house just past the dinosaur painting at Buckhaven wish I had seen you both enjoy your videos keep up the good work 👍
You need well broken in walking boots with two pairs of this socks to hike long distances. I used that system for the Great Glen Way. Both from Fort William to Inverness and return a few years ago. No hotels just campsites but we had to carry a tent, cooking equipment, utensils and food so as we moved along the route it got lighter by the day.
That was awesome. Poor Alicja's feet 😕 That was a trip down memory lane for me, back in the 80's I did the awful long haul Stagecoach from London, to stay at a friends house in Largo, I remember Robinson Crusoe! Pretty sure her house was right on the seafront, sadly she sold it. Gonna send her a link to this video! Lovely one again guys x
Great video Steve, with my wife’s mother coming from Fife we have visited the East Neuk from Lincolnshire for over 50 years and always enjoy your experiences. Great quality, informative and fun.
Thanks Geoff! Glad to cover some familiar places :) A beautiful part of the world eh?
Thanks for the memories, As a wee lad my parents holidayed in Crail and Anster. Knocked about the area by car (a TR3 open top) 50 years ago. Your walk gives me a brand new perspective. Have an Aunt, cousin, and my sister settle in Anster. Another cousin in Crail, indeed I bought a fisherman's row house in Anster as a future retirement home. Ended up on Phuket Island Thailand and never came back. Sold that house for a very big profit 30 years later.
This is like Our great Ocean Rd in Victoria Australia 🏴🇦🇺That’s why a lot of Scots settled here.Love your Vlogs.
Another enjoyable and informative video. Great stuff.
Thanks so much Douglas!
Hi Steve, that was an incredible watch. No mere trip report but another adventure with you both. You really like to suffer but poor Alicja really felt it. Can't wait for part 2 to see if you can make it. Great to see all the little villages along the coast, which are so lovely. Keep on walking! Allan.
Thanks os much Allan! More pain to come in part 2 :)
Great to see this. Childhood memories of holidays in Fife in the 1960s. The ferry journey across the Forth , the smell of linoleum manufacturing in Kirkcaldy and the rush of excitement in Lundin Links as we saw the sea after being inland for a portion. Then at long last arriving in Elie with its wonderful long golden beach. Happy days indeed.
Great video, show casing Fife, as you say there are lots of hidden gems, looking forward to part 2.🏴
great video and kudos fir that first walk-that is long.Also great to see my wee hame village of West Wemyss popping up.😊
Poor Alicja but bravely battling on thanks so much to both of you what a beautiful place Scotland is you both having a strong love for the country and we're so happy to be travelling with you both, I'm a bit behind due to our travel to our family in Thailand for the first time in three years but happy to see some cool down conditions of Scotland 😀 travel safely and hope you're not have to much trouble with blisters thanks again love your presentation
I pull up a map and follow you on your trips. It's great to get personal insight. LOVED Dysart!! Thank you for posting!!
Hey Karen, thanks so much for coming along :)
Another awesome effort. Thank you for taking us for a lovely coastal walk.
Absolutely gobsmacking.Thank you so much.
I’ve been waiting a long time for this video team, knew it would happen one day. (Koorus). I did it years ago inc South Queens to Largo in 1 day and loved it. Wish I’d known I could have provided support at Buckhaven. 10/10 and well done. Can’t wait for part 2. ps mum grew up in Lower Largo. Spent my first summers on that beach.
Thanks for painting the Dinosaurs for us at Buckhaven John! But less of the rain please. What a beautiful coastline you have there, working on part 2 now :)
@@steve-marsh it’s an awesome cycle too
Another great vlog Steve. Great scenery. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the journey. Hope you had an excellent time on your walk.
Absolutely brilliant, thank you for sharing your journey. Some of those places you travelled through are stunning. Hope Alicja has recovered, so admire her determination. Xx
Another great video! Looking forward to Part 2. Hope you’ve recovered fully from this journey by the time you read this comment. 😄
Haha just about, thanks! :) Sitting down now and editing part 2 :)
My family and I have lived in Dalgety Bay for 20 years and have unbelievably never visited Dysart ! After watching your video we finally made it there on a rare sunny day today. We parked the car in Kirkcaldy and walked along the beautiful coastal path, it was wonderful. Far too old to hike like you two, but thoroughly enjoy an easy stroll by the sea. We love seeing all the places you visit, your videos are always so varied and interesting and you are both a pleasure to watch 😌Well done on this long trek, I was wincing at very painful step.
This hike made me a new subscriber. You two are fun to watch and inspirational. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like a lovely walk I've never been to Scotland your videos definitely make me want to visit one day.
Love your walks. Great to see you visit Lower Largo and hear your nice comments. My Grandfather left their in 1913 with his wife and four daughters to settle in Australia. I remember him telling us often about Alexander Selkirk.Cheers from Sydney.
Brilliant as usual Steve looking forward to part two
Epic, dying to see the rest of the journey, don't envy the sore legs and poor feet though 😳👍
Cheers Marty! Aye, it was a bit of a challenge for both of us, but will we make it?...
what an amazing journey you did . Well done . Breathtakingly beautiful too.
This one is amazing? I couldn't walk that much in a day.. what a pace! I love this channel since I found it a few weeks ago. I like doing wee adventures on Scotland and you're very inspiring. I'm definitely going to Lower Largo I tell you that. Good luck!
Wow! Steve & Alicja , That was intense. I've done about half of the Wales Coastal Path (over a few years) before blisters, my body and a couple of pandemic years said sit this one out. I feel your pain, well done, brilliant.
Really looking forward to watching this Steve! Thanks for your hard work as always
Cheers Craig! Hope you enjoyed it :)
Awesome guys, what an effort well done & I look forward to part two, take care , Marilyn from Melbourne 😀
I love walking - my exercise of choice - so watching you two walking is so enjoyable.
Brilliant video love the Fife coast 👍 thanks Steve and Alicjia
I'm so glad I can enjoy this walk without the blisters 😅 It's a long time since I've visited those places, but they still look great. Well done guys and good luck in part 2 👍
Love every minute of this footage !Hope that Alicija's feets are better ! Cheers
Great hike Steve and , feel your pain. When in Scotland, we are going to similar route from east to west. Here in Australia, we do what you do and, guess what? Our feet and bodies feel like yours on this trip. Keep it up you two, it keeps us inspired. 🇦🇺
Loving all your videos.Brings us so much joy and information
Cheers Paul from us both!
I'm sorry, I deleted my comment because it seemed unkind, and I do not mean to be unkind. I love your blogs! You're both lovely.
Love you two 😍 love your journeys. THANKYOU stay safe big hug from Oz 💪💯🙋
Brilliant video Guys. Stunning effort.
Wow well done both another enjoyable adventure thank you both
Thanks so much Jeanette!
Loved every minute of this, well done and can't wait to see part two.
Thanks so much! :) Working on part 2 now!
Inspiring 🙏🏽 Thank you both 🏴 ❤
Thanks so much! Our subscribers like yourself keep the motivation high!
OUTSTANDING to both of you, stunning upload and a fantastic education on some ''new to me places''
Really cracking stuff and some miles on the feet, I walk everywhere so fully appreciate the various Scottish weather elements along with those ''mental tests'' as the days roll by.
Climbed Ben A 'an a few weeks ago and I was struggling for some reason, was fine coming down as got a 2nd wind, Kylo loved it and it was a total breeze for my daughter, later on after food it seemed to hit them both more than me, weird that.
But yeh massive Thanks again Steve and can't wait for Part 2
OH - Not had a Bovril in years, think they call it beef tea in the hospital, I had it regularly in my mum and dads when I was little.
Cheers again, stunning stuff!!!
Omg what a trek......you two are troopers....im hooked.....gna have to watch all of them....yeha
thank you so much for the beautiful views! you guys are awesome!
Great video. Excellent videography. Thanks for sharing. Stay blessed and connected.
Hi guys, loving your content, I live in Lower largo and gutted I missed you folks in the village.
In June this year we stayed at a caravan site at Upper Largo. This was our first visit to Scotland as our son lives near St Andrews. We had a fabulous time exploring the area - it really is beautiful. From our caravan window we had views over the Firth of Fourth and your video brought back happy memories of our holiday. Can't wait to go back next year.
Great video guys!! Walking alone is tough but holding the camera makes it even more exhausting. Poor Alicja!!
Another great journey and there’s more to come. I’m glad you are both doing the walk so I don’t have to. Well done, I look forward to part 2.
Cheers Christopher! Haha I hope you enjoy our pain in part 2 as well :)
Love the scenery, well done on the walk, walking with blister is the worst. Thank you for this incredible video. Can't wait for part 2
Cheers Abby! Hope you enjoy Part 2!
Loved this video, can’t wait for Part 2! it’s not easy doing those walks, but I admire you effortlessly easy attitude. With the 100 degree days we have had in Houston, the cool Scottish weather looks inviting.
Oh Ken I couldn't walk 50 yards there! :O
Wow, you guys are awesome. Thank you for bringing us on your journey. I can relate to the pain and blisters. Last October me and my ex-husband did a 90 mile walk on our own just with white sticks to raise money for 90 years of Guide Dogs. We did about 30 miles each day give or take, some longer than others. We raised almost £6000 and named a puppy, so it was definitely worth every blister and ache. This is a must on my bucket list. Keep up the great videos guys. X.
Superb guys, awesome achievement! Helped I'm sure with the great cause you were doing it for. Bravo!
Excellent Video Steve and a fine effort as well. Really enjoyed part 1 looking forward to part 2
Cheers Craig! Working on it now :)
Gosh! Such a long way, but lovely scenery. So sorry about Alicja's poor feet. Looking forward to Part 2 🥰
What a lovely journey, I could almost feel the pain in your feet. Congratulations to you both!
Thanks so much Richard!
Hello Steve Marsh, Im Early👋 I hope you keep posting this amazing content, my Day Couldn't be any better and your videos Lift me up and i have to say your my favourite youtuber :D 🙌
Thank you SO much!!!! I really hope you enjoyed this one, part 2 coming soon!
Another great journey Steve and Alicja, the railway track through Culross sometimes sees the odd excursions by the Flying Scotsman.
Hi Steve and Alijca, what can be said about your fantastic journey and the pain physically and mentally on such a long path. You certainly go above and beyond for your followers. You never ever disappoint with the content, the beauty of all Scotland has to offer well done the two of you. Looking forward to seeing part 2. Safe travels
Thanks so much Brian! It's you guys who keep us going, the best motivation out there!
I take my socks of to you both for doing the Fife costal trail.. I could never have done that...lots of amazing scenery and memories.. thanks guys 👦
Thanks so much Jennifer - we were both suffering for weeks after it :D
A very interesting and I inspiring walk Steve and Alicia, you fairly put in the miles across beautiful Fife and will encourage others to put on their walking shoes ! ( mind you maybe not be as ambitious mileage as you two - awesome thanks ) 😁👍
Wow! Outstanding scenery and beautiful villages. Credit to you both. I’d have to do a mile at a time. 🙂 Thanks for another outstanding video.
Well done you guys.
Alicya hope you recover totally, I appreciate your dedication.
This is what watching this so worth while , you guys have all the stamina and dedication to encourage us to watch more of your channel 👍😇
Thanks so much from us both! You guys keep us going!
Absolutely loved that video Steve the the Fife is stunning thanks to use both cheers 🍻🍺.love the longer videos.🍻👍ps i think that walk took its toll.
Haha it sure did!
Thanks for suffering to bring us the pleasure of this walk! My favourite scenes - 10.08, north Queensferry; 34.12, Robinson Crusoe’s statue - saw this when we went to Elie in 1950’s; and 36.40, Elie, where my father owned the bakery in late 1940’s - early 1950’s.
Cheers from Australia.
That's so cool George! Oh could have done with a good pie in Elie! Cheers :)
That's a whole lot of walking, and I'm sure your feet felt it for days - it's lovely scenery out there though, and even when you're slogging through the storm doing 5 second bursts to camera behind fences it looks like a lovely walk.
Looking forward to the part 2, but I would also be very up for watching through you & Alicja take afternoon tea somewhere - it's one of my favourite ways to spend an afternoon and I'd love to hear where you thing are good places to go.
Thank you. I enjoyed very much walking with the both of you in my mind. All the happiness and none of the sore feet.
Haha the perfect way to do it :D Thanks so much for coming along!
What a good challenge for both of you to try this long journey. Love to see the scenery along the coast. Well done, Steve and Alicja.
Thanks so much Jacky!
Grueling 1st day! I know time was an issue, but I would of hunkered down in the hotel day 2 lol! Thanks for hauling us along Steve!
This has been a Mammoth tour for you both, I was breathless by reaching first junction! I have enjoyed seeing new grounds for me and what fabulous views, there is no escaping the true to form Scottish weather is there! you and Alicja are so courageous with your passion for making remarkable interesting videos for our enjoyment, I loved seeing you in your Kilt Steve, today wouldn’t have been a good Idea though me thinks! you can hardly wear thermal long johns under them 🫣 I hope Alicja’s feet have recovered enough to continue Part 2. Even though you are broken Steve I don’t think wild horses would prevent you from carrying on! 👍
Thanks Steve for doing this walk and filming it, great scenery and I hope you are both recovered now.
Thanks so much! Recovered, but more pain to come in part 2 ;)
Wow epic adventure looks amazing. Good effort. Might try this myself one day 🙂 Looking forward to the next part 👍
It's so worth it Paul! Just strap up the feet well!
A marathon walk and a marathon video. I was thinking about doing this walk during the summer. Thanks for showing the walk in all its glory!
Cheers Scott! I'm patiently waiting to see if you get back from Paris! :D
Wow! Well done to both of you for walking all those miles. I`m exhausted just watching you. No one can say you don`t do your bit for your subscribers. Looking forward to part 2 - hope the feet have healed.
Cheers Colin! You guys all keep us going :)
Completely awesome the pair of you Alicia’s wee face torture bless, but a superb vid of east Fife and encouraged me to get back there with camera. Thanks for inspiration
Cheers David! The scenery made up for the sore feet. Almost.
Lovely walk. Beautiful villages. Have been over the Fife bridge by train. Thanks for letting us see the underside.
Thanks for coming along Lynne!
Absolutely great. My wife and I recently walked the bit from North Queensferry to Kirkcaldy when we were on holiday up there. We visit the area regularly and always walk the bits between Inverkeithing and Aberdour. The Sands at Aberdour serves great food and there's also a niche cafe near the station. On the Hope Street in Inverkeithing there is a coffee shop and the food and drink are great. The whole thing is on our list of walks to do.
I'm only 11 minutes in and I'm loving it. So much to see. Bravo to you both for taking this adventure on. Can't wait to continue watching. Oh and Limekilns Primary School...my first ever school - I was 5 and lived just outside of Dumfirmline at a farm called Gallowridge Hill Farm....purportedly the location of...hmm gallows for hanging the crims!
Haha thanks Tudor! Glad to bring you some very familiar places! :)
Nice one again Steve. Looking forward to the rest of your trip. Pity I missed you on our travels. Kind regards to you both. Blair
Thanks Blair! Hope to see you on a future adventure!
Cracking video Steve. An area I know well since my cousin's live in Kincardine. Really enjoyed that one. Now part 2 . Cheers
Cheers mate! A lot of pain to come :D
Hi guys, I watched this last weekend and have meant to comment sooner. I hope you've both rested and your feet are on the mend? I have an ankle injury from nearly 50 years which means I can't walk too far, so Alicija's struggles were all too familiar but what a trooper you are Steve, I'd have been inclined to rest together. I was really interested to watch this vlog as I visited Dysart a couple of weeks ago and I loved it. I've visited Elie, St. Monan's etc., a while back but didn't know about East/West Weymss, Aberdour even though I've been to Burntisland a few times. I have learned so much from your channel and am so inspired to cover many of your tracks, thank you doesn't seem enough but I am truly, very grateful and cannot wait for part 2. Cheers
A few years ago I cycled from Cramond over the Forth Road Bridge and along the Fife Trail as far as St Monans and back.
The East Neuk with its wonderful villages is spectacular and so picturesque.
I'm coming back to Scotland ( my daughters graduation) in a weeks time, can't wait to see the Auld Country !
Well done guys and thank goodness for Compeed !! 👍
Hey Richard that's a good push, especially having to come back again! All the best for the graduation and congrats to your daughter!
Well done much appreciated. Super views and costal paths. I enjoy your presentation and humour. Pleased to be leaving London for Glasgow very soon! Best wishes Rodney.🏴✅
Cheers Rodney!
Nice video. I used to live in Dunfermline so I know most of these places very well. Brings back happy memories
Cheers Stewart! Oh I'm thinking to do a video of Dunfermline soon now it's officially a city!
really enjoyable I'm thinking of doing backpacking britan from john o groats to lands end this has gave me some extra inspiration
Nothing but respect for you!
Hello Steve and Alicja and I do hope that your sore feet and blisters have now healed, no pun intended, I can certainly sympathize having had painful blisters on more than one occasion, however, thanks for the trip, magnificent scenery and I am so looking forward to the next video, stay safe and good luck, cheers, Si. Loved the comment about the posh house with the outside toilet, had me laughing.
Cheers Simon! Working on part 2 right now, more pain to come...:)
I would love a challenge like this, walking 116 miles. Good choice to stay in hotels. The views so far of the ocean are lovely. Good luck on your challenge from South Carolina, USA and safe teavels.
