I walked, at the age of 70, almost 2,000 kms from the Pyrenees to Northern England. My book - "Vic's Big Walk" – is about the walk - and much else besides. "Living In The Real Cyprus" - quickly followed. Both books are now available in both e-book form and in paperback. The walk raised funds for Pancreatic Cancer research. Just click the blue donate button. All proceeds of all books go direct to the same cause. See below to read about my new fundraising project, Vic Talks The Walk

Forging Superman
Today is VBW 70/70-70. 70 days to go until I start my 70-day walk to arrive at the destination on my 70th birthday.
I am raring to go. This week's very hard walking -steep, rocky - has reminded me that after the first day I will be walking in territory which is completely new to me. The only Grandes Randonnees I have walked in France have been within a day's walk of home.
I can only hope that it will not be all like the paths we have been walking this week. If so, I would either collapse at some stage through sheer exhaustion or I would arrive in Blackpool as a newly-forged superman.
