Day 5 - July 24th - Saxon Street to Balsham - 10.5 miles

Read about why I have embarked on a 3-week 400-mile walk across Britain.
Day starts well, despite no food now since lunch yesterday. Pick up footpath by Ley Farm, near Stetchworth, and walk for two hours through rural idyll, deer jumping from the trees before me, butterflies everywhere, no people, no tractors, only birdsong. Finally re-emerge at Great Bradley, with my shin splints starting to prove very painful. This just gets worse and limp my way through Carlton and Weston Colville into Balsham, where I call it a day and drop into the Black Bull for food, beer and recuperation.
