Day 2: Bantry to Macroom

The Mission hobbled into Macroom, Co. Cork well after dark last night. The reasons behind this will become clear when McKinney manages to get himself to a computer to edit this post but, briefly, the reasons behind this disaster include map malfunctions, mountains, baggage and injury.

15 hours spent on the road yesterday sent spirits in the camp straight to rock bottom but the incredibly generous Evelyn Casey and the good people at Coolcower House looked after them amazingly well. A big thank you to Caroline O'Leary for setting it up.

Needless to say, the trip can only get better from here!

Distance Day 2: 55km very approx

Theme of the Day: Despair

Word of the Day: "Steep"

Reminder to all to donate to the group @
