Day 4 - Harwich to Cromer
We start this day by firstly crossing from Harwich to Felixstow by ferry then getting on my bike to make my way north along the coast of the North Sea:
This is a cycling day again and I would expect it to be a very difficult start of a long day, this is not such a troublesome day with regards to many hills. Here the total ascent 1824ft, total descent 1768ft and maximum height of 184ft for the predicted 110 mile ride is not as much an enemy than the fatigue from running 51 miles on Day 3 and the relentless wind off the North Sea.
This is a beautiful stretch of ride, on the east we have the North Sea and in various places on the west I will be passing through scattered forests and woods of all sizes. Passing through towns/ cities such as Alterton, Aldeburgh, Dunwich, Blackwater, Lowestoft, Great Yarmouth, Eccles-on-Sea, Mundesley and finally Cromer to end at the rail station.
On this leg of my journey my energy expenditure is calculated to be approximately 5022 calories for 110 miles as appose to Day 3's 51 mile run at 5731 calories.
All calculations are only approximations and to know the real values I would have to be doing the expedition and you would have to follow the input I then give.
You can also follow more information on twitter @AroundTheUKin50 and have a look at my web-page http://www.aroundtheukin50days.com/
I would like to make an URGENT APPEAL to any one who owns a motor home or know someone who owns a motor home to contact me as soon as possible via e-mail: ettiennedbr778@gmail.com.
I have included a link if you would like to have a closer look at Day 4 and where the route will take me for this day: http://gb.mapometer.com/cycling/route_1669943.html
Lastly, as this expedition is for a real and life changing cause any donation would be greatly appreciated by the women who this is aimed to help. Please make a donation by following the link below or even easier by just texting FQDL90 £1 to 70070 to make a quick and painless donation that counts.
