Walk 126

Southport to Preston 23miles

The sun is shinning and as I make my way to the seafront the Blackpool tower is there in the distance, if only there was a 10miles bridge directly across the sea! A lot of road walking today and the first village is Banks which takes me through to Becconsall and onto Tarleton. At Tarleton I'm able to cross the river on my way to Much Hootle.  The bridge over the river is being revamped and there is not much space for a walker so the nice workman holds up all the traffic so I can cross, the least I can do is break into a jog!!!  Just after Longton I'm able to get onto the river Ribble way which takes me for the rest of the journey all the way to Preston.
