Report

A Self-Supported trip, following the given gpx. Went without sleep for 2 nights which is tough and some of the trail had bad tree fall (see photo). No one ran with me, the gpx showed stops in Buckingham, Wolverton, St Neots, Ely and Downham Market for food and water. The last section is a killer as the scenery is so vast (because it's flat) and it takes for ever for Kings Lynn to come into view. Even though the original supported FKT trip report mentioned the recorded message on the sluice gate into Kings Lynn - it still gave me a fright telling me to keep to the footpath. I went looking before I realised I was on the footpath and this was just a general warning to all!
