Adventure Bulletin: Wild Wednesday!

Hi !

Hope you are having a fantastic week so far.

It's coming up to the summer months and do lots of you are getting out for adventures big and small. If you'd like to share, head to the Facebook Group, or just give us a tag #getintrepid

I'm going to try to embed one in this email... but heck it isn't looking promising. At the very least you might be able to click through! (Sorry)

Ahem... well, hopefully that kind of worked and you can click through to @almostdefinitelyoutside original post...

Now on to adventures...!

On the subject of running, Nikki Love will be running across Australia this August! https://nikkilove.co.uk/

The Great Outdoors Challenge is a self supported backpacking challenge, coast to coast across Scotland. It takes place every year and there are some great blogs/reflections from this year's event: https://www.tgochallenge.co.uk/

Here's a blog post we liked about starting backpacking - Day 1 of the West Highland Way

Mel Nicholls is setting off to handcycle LEJOG on 13th June. You can read more about the challenge and follow her progress here.

Also, there's been a big stir in the wild camping community after a business tried to set up something called "UK wild camp" that was basically just paying to camp in a field. That's all over now.
