I bumped into a friend at the weekend on the barrowden to harringworth path and he had walking
poles with him, which ,made me laugh. was I being fair? Do walking poles have any value
in our modestly contoured terrain?

Hi Nick

You will be pleased to hear that walking around Barrowden is very good training for the Atacama desert.

The total distance Louise covered was about 253 k over 6 days. It took her 45 hrs 30 min, She actually finished 52 out of 145 starters. She was the 5 female to finish. Have a look at the website.

All the best
