@alidolphin.bsky.social’s partner Frank is attempting an FKT on the South section of the Shropshire Way. 122 miles 4000 metres elevation.

Great to see Frank going well and sporting a fine looking gold badge.
Idiot that I am I managed to delete the original post whilst trying to edit a response. I hope my support is better than my social secretary skills.
He completed one third at 4pm in Much Wenlock.
