Oh the chaffing!!

Finally got motivation to have a stamp at a decent walk. Walked from Stokenchurch to the cricket club, a shade under 8 miles done in 1hr 54mins, so averaged just over 4mph. I was using Sportypal to measure distance and speed, I turned the bloody thing off just past West Wycombe. I made a few fundamental mistakes on this walk:

1. Didn't have 2 layers of socks so got awful blisters
2. Didn't wear lycra shorts under trousers so chaffing inner thighs- blimmin agony
3. No hat or suncream so burnt my head

Really enjoyed the walk but really need to start getting the miles under my belt now.
