In 1979 Chris Priest and Duncan Say were just youngsters with an ambitious idea to hike the Pennine Way. A practice hike over two days soon made them realise this wasn't a walk in the park and shouldn't be attempted with their 40lb packs! They had made all the necessary plans including coloring in their printed out maps and they set off through the peat bogs on their 268 mile adventure.
Fast forward to 2019, forty years later. Still good friends and hiking buddies, Chris hatched a plan to do it all again. Although reluctant, Duncan is a loyal friend and the Pennine Way was once more. They spent 16 days reliving their youth and making new memories along the way. Memories they have recorded in their book 'Forty years Sixteen days'.
We chat about the PW and all that has changed over the years including the terrain, the paths and their own perceptions.
