Offa's Dyke

Adventure 3 - Jogging the Offa's Dyke Path - Oct 2021

Stage 1 - A triathlon of Wales

Good news - I have been thinking about what the next family adventure could be. Thank you for the suggestions (Everest would be too tough), Cycle LeJog, turn around and cycle back - tempting. Another tempting suggestion was to run the three peak challenge. But I think we have a winner! A triathlon of Wales. 

Stage 1 - Run 177 miles along the Offa's Dyke path. (Starting near Chepstow)
Stage 2 - Cycle the coast line of Wales (yikes I just checked and it like 1300 miles). But the roads might offer me a shorter distance. (Prestatyn - Chepstow)
Stage 3 - Swim across something (all suggestions welcome)

You might notice that this involves chepstow twice.... there is a reason for this. An adventure is not an adventure without visiting Chepstow....
