Preparing for LeJog consisted of raising money, training, route and accommodation planning, and mentally preparing for 23 days on the road!
The route was really in 3 stages, with the 3 peaks acting as the checkpoints. Each week I would be conquering a mountain. Relying mainly on google maps and there cycle routes to get me from one end of the country to the other!
