cheers, For the first part of the walk, I will be on The Beara Breifne Way http://www.bbgreenway.com/ which is mostly waymarked trails, takes me as far as Cavan,  then after that will mostly be paths and roads!

Wow, you mentioned something of your plans at Christmas, but to see it now in print underlines the scale of the challenge.  Fair play to you.  A great challenge for a great cause.

I'll watch with interest. Well, as much as I can from outside of thon Facebook thing.
