LEJOGcast - The Land's End to John o'Groats walking podcast

LEJOG stands for Land's End to John o'Groats, the 1,200-ish mile walk from the southwestern tip of Cornwall to the northeastern tip of Scotland. It's the British long-distance hike, and thousands of people attempt some version of it every year. David Felton's LEJOGcast documents his own crossing in episodic form, mixing route notes, gear decisions, logistics for bed-and-breakfast stops, and the small miseries and joys of doing a multi-week walk through unfamiliar countryside. Only five episodes deep so far, which makes this more of a work-in-progress than a finished reference, but that's part of the appeal. David records with the raw urgency of someone who is currently sore, slightly behind schedule, and unsure whether the next pub has rooms available. If you're planning your own LEJOG, or any long-distance UK walk, this is invaluable because he gets into details other travel podcasts skip: how he planned resupply, which maps actually worked offline, where the waymarking goes vague, how his feet held up. Even if you have no intention of walking across Britain, there's something genuinely enjoyable about following one person's slow progress up the country, week by week. I'd recommend starting at episode one and letting it unspool. It's short enough to binge on a single weekend walk of your own.
