DeeRus Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) Please take a moment and if possible send an intrepid (some might say, bonkers!) footsolder a couple of quid maybe?? So its the night before Scot (ScottyAlba) starts his Tartan Trek, and it seems appropriate to promote his penultimate day! Day 10 (March 27th) Ecclefechan – Abington and its a steady 38 miles again today - Scot probably doesn't want to think about this right now but at the end of his 10th day on the road, he's now covered .................... wait for it THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THREE MILES!! On a slightly brighter piece of news .............. only 37 miles to go on the last day Do we have any Tartan Army in the area and able to come out and cheer him on, for any part of his routes? 18/03/15 Day 1, IPSWICH – Bury St Edmunds 25 miles Day 2, Bury – Sutton Bridge 45 miles Day 3, Sutton Bridge – Billinghay 35 miles Day 4, Billinghay – Gainsborough 33 miles Day 5, Gainsborough – Ackworth 34 Miles Day 6, Ackworth – Kildwick 35 Miles Day 7, Kildwick – Casterton 35 Miles Day 8, Casterton – Penrith 35 miles Day 9, Penrith – Ecclefechan 38 Miles Day 10, Ecclefechan – Abington 38 miles 29/03/15 Day 11 Abington – GLASGOW 37 miles (I'm tired just reading that!) Scot's aim is to try and raise enough funds so that each of the charities, including ourselves, the Tartan Army Sunshine Appeal and the TACC, will be better off to the tune of (hopefully) £1000! Please take a moment to donate -www.sponsorme.co.uk/scotrowland/tartan-trek Good luck Scott - Everywhere we go!
