This is an account of the trials and tribulations of a middle-aged, desk-bound and overweight individual on a six-hundred mile journey through the Pyrénées Mountains from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea. The GR10 -- the Grande Randonnée Route 10 footpath -- links Hendaye in the west to Banyuls-sur-Mer in the east, and it has been described as the equivalent of five ascents and descents of Mount Everest. Initially totally unprepared, the author struggled physically and mentally to complete just five miles of rolling Basque countryside in a day, and he was beset by assaults from both animate and inanimate objects. After a few weeks twenty-five miles in a day was not unreasonable – including some serious ascents and descents, together with a boulder or snow field crossing or two. On the contrary, the adventure had become highly enjoyable, and the individual completing the walk was unrecognisable from the person who began it.
