      @fraserhamilton-nf4dk a friend and I walked from Edinburgh to Bowling too - since that’s where the Forth and Clyde Canal meets the sea, we (and you) could say we’d walked across Scotland. We called our Journey “ Across Scotland on the Instalment Plan”. It was a really exciting trip, full of unexpected adventures. Then we decided we’d have to walk from the Fountainbridge Canal Centre to Leith…

    Steve - good evening. 42 1/2 miles is absolutely NOT a failure! That's extremely impressive and not many people would have the stamina to do what you did. My hat is off to you, if I was wearing one LOL!
    We really don't know what we can accomplish unless we try. I never thought I could climb the CN Tower in Toronto (I live in the next city over) when you could do so for charity but I ended up doing it 12 years in a row!
    Keep up the great videos!

    Steve, my admiration for your effort! I've walked most of the Union Canal between Edinburgh and Falkirk, but I did it one segment at a time - five days I believe. I DO endorse the canal walk for any of your viewers. The aquaducts and views across the Forth are a great experience.

    Some people would be planning for months to complete that distance.
    I myself have attempted to walk from London to Brighton and failed after around 43 miles in 1982.
    These walks were done by the London stock exchange and American banks for 50 years or more. All for charity

    I am truly in awe of your videos, I spent some time in Scotland during my younger years so I know the landscape up there in Scotland is already amazing however you seem to have an incredibly artistic skill for capturing the natural beauty of Scotland. Particularly in the Edinburgh to Glasgow in a day video, your cinematography is worthy of many professional lighting cameramen in the film industry. Well done sir I have subscribed and I look forward to more of your excellent videos.

    • @steve-marsh

    I think this walk is very successful. Maybe a high-quality trainer with excellent support is the way to go. Congratulations on making it as far as you did.

      Cheers Paul! I pushed it a bit far in the end, to be honest, even what I did was beyond my real limit - maybe a bike next time :)

    I felt for your effort. Very well done. When old & grey like me (79), I can only dream these things now.- 2hrs walking max for me - Saw the Falkirk wheel/Kelpies in 2018 whilst driving around the UK (+ clockwise NC500) Keep up the great work.

    • @steve-marsh

    Steve, you walked a comparable distance as the Fort William to Tyndrum segment of the West Highland Way! Hope you savoured all the scenic vistas of Cumbernauld upon your arrival. Unfortunate that the washout of the Union Canal near Polmont resulted in your tedious diversion, and no doubt contributed to your exhaustion by journey's end. Well done for attempting such an ambitious adventure on foot, especially all in one day! Health and peace.

    • @steve-marsh
      @steve-marsh  4 года назад +1

      Cheers Kevin, haha Cumbernauld is the same as I remember! Yeah, that diversion really was a nightmare - needed everything to go perfectly to even have a chance! (maybe a bike next time eh?!) Thanks for watching and all the best to you!
