In May 2005 Maggie Hems celebrated her birthday by taking a month for herself and as part of that joining the 2005 TGO Challenge for her seventh crossing on foot from Acharacle to Scurdie Ness.
Here we chat to her about the enjoyment of the crossing, getting her pack weight down to 15kg and walking as a solo lady. Lots of hints and tips for any ladies considering doing their first solo crossing. An enjoyable interview with someone very enthusiastic about the Challenge!
