Today we would finally get some answers as to what to expect when 15 of us tackle the 40 mile Lyke Wake Walk in June. After the relatively relaxing walk yesterday I was sure today would be much tougher and a walk that would push me given the steep section yesterday, coupled with the fact I had carried Abigail, meant my legs were already a tad stiff before we started. With the little car park opposite the Lyke Wake stone full, we used the larger one a stone’s throw away to park up and get ready. Of the nine in attendance, all bar Ryan would be back in June to attempt to walk across the North Yorkshire Moors from this point to Ravenscar. Each of us was no doubt trying to learn a little bit about the route, especially as this would be the section we would cover in darkness.
