25.01.2022 Heddon on the wall to Walls end, Newcastle, 24km
25.01.2022 Hi Everybody, Day 3 was a killer, 25 kilometres across pretty hilly terrain at the end. Bridgette had two falls badly cutting her knees. She soldiered on for the first fall but had to go to the Doctors on the second fall. She is insistent on completing the walk! Our internet is pretty slow so we hope to post the videos tonight after a 17 kilometre walk day 4!

18.01.2022 I have started training now in full armour with shield around the eastern suburbs. Video will be posted shortly. Lots of interested people re the charities and several people who dont look me in the eye and cross the road to avoid me!!!! I think they assume Im a nutter!!! Not sure why they would think that, a grown man walking the Streets of Melbourne in full Roman Legion Attire!!! Spread the word re the charities as they need all the support they can for the wonderful work they do. Only 4 weeks to go before we start the 135 km across England!.

13.01.2022 Hi Supporters, friends and fellow facebookers, Well, we did it! 24 km final day was a killer in distance. Craigs feet were destroyed and had flesh pealing off, yep, disgusting.... Two little troopers, Troy & Bridgette blitzed it with no complaints whatsoever, they laughed and joked together the whole 135 km and had a history teacher guide impart his knowledge to them over the walk. Thanks Pete the Hadrians Wall expert! Natalie did a great job and carried the food and water for four people the whole way!! Kevin Rose (74 years old) completed the walk with injuries but as per the Rose never give up attitude did it with a smile and a joke and a fist in the air!! Thanks to Becky, our Maximum Adventure Guide. Thanks to everybody who has supported the charities and shared our journey. Photos and videos will be loaded ASAP over the next day. Now, if you dont mind, we are heading to the Hotel Bar!!! See more
13.01.2022 First Day was only 8 miles or around 12 kilometres. We started from a place called Bowness on Solway at the very western end of the wall and walked to an ancient church built from the remnants of a Roman legion fort at a small village called Burgh-by-Sands! The team did really well and we were lucky the weather held off as rain was forecast. A few blisters but all manageable! We will post a fantastic video Troy made of the day on youtube, (file is to big for facebook) shortly.
13.01.2022 Please continue to donate over the next week before we seek to gain a final donations figure to the three charities!

07.01.2022 Errington Arms to Heddon on the wall (10 miles16km)
05.01.2022 Housesteads Fort to Errington Arms Hotel, light rain all day over 20 kilometres
04.01.2022 Updated donations total to the 3 charities on www.wallwalk.com.au, getting closer to the target. A big thank you to everybody who has donated to date! I have had to cut the blades off the Swords, (Gladius & Pugio). The local constabulary were supportive but recent events in the UK have meant no deviation for carrying swords and knives. I think this will help getting through customs anyway so they dont think Im a one man invasion!! Next update will be on the wall!!
04.01.2022 Day 6 video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt-_uur-qzQ Errington arms to Heddon on the wall (10 miles/16km)
03.01.2022 Day 5 was completed in light rain which fell all day! The 13 miles ( 21 kilometres) from Housesteads Fort to Errington Arms Hotel had several steep hills including a two kilometre steep hill that challenged everybody except Bridgette (10 years old) who as usual powered up it. It was great to finish this day as it was probably the hardest mentally after yesterdays mountainous and exhausting day.
02.01.2022 Its a 24 kilometre slog today. Everybody is pretty tired, injuries are starting to cause some minor issues. Craigs feet are pretty bad, ( no photo, too gross!) but we are determined to complete mission! We will update when we finish. Wish us luck and if you havent already donated to any of the three fantastic charities we ask for your support, no matter how big or small. Thanks everybody! Now time to start the last day walking across England!
01.01.2022 Day 4 was short in kilometres (17.7 km) but basically the whole way was across mountainous terrain, extremely steep and rocky. By the end of the day everyone was exhausted. However, the bonus was the vistas were absolutely fantastic!
