It’s so brilliant! #westhighlandway @ContoursHoliday
The classic end of #WestHighlandWay picture in Fort William. Can’t believe the luck I’ve had with the weather for the last 7 days/100 miles. Thanks again to the excellent @ContoursHoliday team for making all the arrangements.
Borders Abbey away completed today: Hawick to Melrose. Tough gig but a light lunch / change of socks 🧦 in Selkirk kept me going. @MelrosePaths @ContoursHoliday @RunATWorld
Borders Abbey Way: Jedburgh to Hawick. Walked today as weather looked dodgy for running. Found a lovely cafe at Denholm. @ContoursHoliday
Borders Abbey Way: Kelso to Jedburgh today. Tough going at times due to skinny, overgrown paths. Not N issue if walking, not ideal with bare legs and shorts. @VisitScotland @ContoursHoliday

Nice article & they’re right about Contours.
