Nigel is a great optimist and a chronic underestimater of distances.
This has led, amongst our family and friends, to the concept of Harvey Miles. Harvey miles are longer than normal miles. Our first day, Winchester to Meonstoke was to be a gentle one - 12 miles.
As we set off, Nigel added, 'Ooh. It's even better than I thought. Google says it's just 10 miles.'
As it turned out, the weather was perfect - dry, but not too hot. There were a lot of hills but mostly on a shallow gradient.
All of which is just as well, because when we arrived, Nigel's Fitbit showed we had walked 14.6 miles.
