What? Why? How? (sticky)

Hello and welcome,

Thanks for dropping by. I set this site up to track my progress towards the completion of my 2012 challenge. I'm aiming to travel 2,012km in 20.12 (appx) weeks in the gym or on the road. You can sign up yourself (or find out more) at this website.

Early on in the process I realised that the distance I would be covering would get me from Bristol, UK - where I live - to the outskirts of Rome, Italy. So I've been tracking my route along the way following this map.

I hope to raise a bit of money for Habitat for Humanity in the course of this - there's a justgiving page for that purpose. There is no obligation on anyone to donate - for me this is more about the process.

Glorious day

So the end of day 1 skiing. We survived unscathed. Was a glorious day, we both had too many layers on to start with.

Someone should have told us though that it was an Italian holiday. The place is heaving with the (mostly) guided missiles known as bambini.

The sun has been out all day and it has been what we call a good day for architecture. But, we only have the architecture of nature to cope with. Ah well. Enjoy ....

(ps. We're by mont blanc, the top of which is appx 1000m below everest base camp).
