There are very few vlogs that you just don’t want to end. This is one of them. Wonderful series. Irrepressible good humour and optimism from these two. Will look forward to whatever you get up to next.
@@Off.Day.Adventures, well done the pair of you , besides the odd blister and skin rubbing off things were excellent and to top it off a pint was waiting at the end of the day. In your last video you mention returning but after doing some local walks ( hope your cider drinking hasn't spoilt you 😂 ) , don't forget when you do a walk over here you keep the " right to walk " paths open You say you have had lots of suggestions already for next time , can I add the " Coast to Coast " , it starts in Cumbria and ends in Northumberland ( either way is done ) along Hadrian's Wall ( sadly idiots have cut down the Pine Tree ) and is only 75 miles 😂 but you can have a break any time like for instance the " Lake District " with it's rolling hills and excellent booze etc . Along it you will see some odd carving in the wall indicating " Play Area " 😂 and the wall not hugely tall but it is nearly 2,000 years old but you'll see lots of dry stone walls in fields , solid barns , farm housing and even a small town / village called Wall all of which are built in stone and looking very familiar 😂😂 . Well done the pair of you and rest up before the next one and do your excellent research ( remember that the UK has very little thinks that bites you 😂 )
Just to say well done to you both - a really enjoyable watch from start to finish; Rach is honestly a trooper to walk on blisters since day 2, and you both to walk in the heat for those distances is no mean feat. Like every person said to you - you lucked in with the weather; but as a seasoned hiker myself, I know hiking at distance in full sun is no joke. I also loved that invariably your answer to all the challenges you faced was a pub stop and beer/cider - it was refreshing to see you embracing British culture to the point where it seemed totally natural to you to do so. Well done again, and enjoy your thirties 😊
I'm so glad you achieved your goal but so sad that it means an end to this series but you words of wisdom at 9min 45sec will stay with me forever. "Stop at more Pubs"
I must say - sitting on a wall drinking a can of thatchers - you have achieved peak Gloucestershire/somerset local. ;) Congratulations on completing the hike! :)
So glad you finished in style and great shape!. I am going to miss these films, because you have such lovely personalities and a feeling for history and natural beauty and scenery. You have shown me sights, views and things which I have never seen and I am grateful for that. I hope you had a pleasant flight back to Florida, with the knowledge that you have achieved something spectacular, and made some lovely memories! 🎉
Ha! "American Pie" - what an appropriated and unexpected sound-track for your final steps! That was great, I thoroughly enjoyed every footstep of every day - and I didn't get a single blister! (Though I did actually join you for a glass of Thatchers Haze - my favourite cider). So glad you enjoyed our lovely countryside - come back soon. Best wishes.
Well done you two, my wife and I walked it in 2017 while she was receiving chemotherapy for cancer. She was determined to finish it and sadly died a year later
Congratulations on completing your walk! Absolutely loved the videos and loved that you enjoyed our English countryside so much!! We think you should look at the Two Moors Ways/Coast to Coast in the south west of England (very remote in parts but beautiful!) Or the South Downs Way in the South of England 😊
My admiration for both of you walking in the summer heat is boundless. As an Englishman, I'm well aware of how intense the heat can be here.If you ever do it again, please pick up some paracetamol and a tube of Germolene cream, which my daughter fondly referred to as "magic cream" when she was younger. It's great for everything-cuts, insect bites, stings, blisters-and I even used it for my two girls' nappy rash, or as you might call it, diaper rash.
Hey guys, it’s been a pleasure to watch you both enjoy our beautiful countryside, well done with completing the challenge, it’s amazing what you can do when you’re powered by Thatchers Cider🍻👍🏼😂
Congratulations Ben and Rach on a fantastic vlog series, I've been delaying watching day 9 because I didn't want it to end. You guys should definitely be doing this for a living, it's so refreshing to find a genuine couple just being themselves. The unscripted rambling dialogue really matched the physical rambling so effortlessly, I can't wait to see what challenges you try in the future.
Congratulations to you both what a absolute honour to what your hike great couple I to didn’t want the vlog to end hope one day you start from bath and take us with you and thank you 🙏
Talk about timing that Busker singing Bye Bye American Pie at the end of your walk in Bath was perfect,I really enjoyed watching you both on this journey,doing it must bring you both even more together ,I’m sad 😢 its over as well
Well done guys. I never had any doubt. I had faith in you. And, as they say, faith can move mountains, or at least help you climb them. 👏👏👏 Cheers! 🍻🍺🍺
Congrats to you both! A great series of films and an achievement to feel proud of. Along the way, you laid waste to a couple of preconceptions for your US compatriots - that it always rains in England (you had great weather) and that the food is awful (you had some great meals).
I really enjoyed this series and like a lot of the other commenters I didn’t want it to end. I appreciate that you the time and expense to travel to the UK and make these films so thanks for that ❤️ 🇬🇧
Next year you need to do the Three peaks in Yorkshire, 24 miles in one day, you start at a cafe/gift shop that has a old style clocking on machine for workers to record your start and finish time, when I did it I did it I was 45 years old and did it with my three teenage sons, on the drive home I had to call in to get some fuel and opened the car door to get out but my legs wouldnt move I had to lift my legs out, it was a fantastic day. Well done with your walk and hope you come back soon. Paul P
@@Off.Day.Adventures Your content proves that it's all about the journey and not the destination, you both had a fabulous attitude, one long pub crawl, i loved that 😂😂
Really enjoyed your journey log, you toughed it out and it's inspired me to try it. Living in the UK you can take the countryside for granted and just not take the time to really appreciate the beauty. Thank you for waking me up to this fact. You are a fab couple and I wish you all the happiness in the world. Come back to the UK again and I recommend you try a northern walk Steve
Didn't think Rachel was going to make it after day 2, walking like a gingerbread woman, and blisters. Well done both for sticking it out good achievement.
This greatgrandmother of 87 has been with you every step of the way. Rachel, I wept for your blisters, marvelled at you sheer guts and tenacity, and cheered like mad as you finished. You both did America proud. Please hurry back and come to Yorkshire.
Grats on finishing the Cotswold Way, now please come back soon and try another. Maybe the Penine Way, which is 268 miles in Northern England with a little bit in Scotland 👍 Or the King Charles III England Coast Path which will be completed in 2024. That’s 2700 miles of amazing coastal hiking.👍 If that’s a bit too much try the SW Coast Path, which is 630 miles. There are many more, I would love to see you amazing folks return and make some more UK vlogs.
@@Off.Day.Adventures Many parts of the South West Coast path are accessible by bus and train. You could stay in two or three towns and walk sections over two weeks.
As most of the comments say… I have loved every vidya of this walk, you two are adorable, I wish I could do this walk it looked like a fairytale but alasss those days are gone now but I was there with you and I thank you for that! Thank you, thank you
Congratulations on finishing your first long distance hike. Watching your series of vlogs has been a truly joyous experience. My first LDW was the Cotswold Way, as well, but when it came to training I lived not much more than an hour from the Lake District in Cumbria so I was able to pound up and down the lakeland fells to get fit. As a result I don't ever remember getting particulary tired on the walk. You on the other hand live in Florida. I looked to see which hills and mountains you would have been training on only to find that Florida is as flat as a pancake. No wonder poor Rachel was struggling at times. It makes you achievement all the more impressive.
Im so sad it’s over🥲 so proud of you Rae for pushing through the pain, and thank you Ben for being so encouraging❤️ The scenery was beautiful and now I want to do it!
Well done guys! Really enjoyed following along with you on this. This is my neck of the woods and you’ve shown me how much I take it for granted! Looking forward to seeing what you do next.
I have binge watched this mammoth hike today, from its start, to its completion. I know from a recent post, your intention was to create a video to be followed by family and friends, as well as capturing your own personal record of the trip. As one of the many unknown strangers who have also viewed it. Can I say, how I very much enjoyed what you created for us all. A Quality Vlog, superbly delivered by a delightfully lovely couple. Worthy of our time to enjoy repeat viewings, through the coming winter months and beyond. I look forward to discovering what is yet to come and also, what has come before, in your previous videos.
Congratulations on becoming throu hikers. As I said in another video you have to keep up the walking, do at least ten miles a week. Then you will be able to do a teen daily mileage hike with less problems. I am looking forward to some day hikes of the Florida or other trail near to you.
@@Off.Day.Adventures its on google lol but its 95 hills all over derbyshire dale in the peak district you walk to the top of them and it them off the list they range from around 400 meters to 600 meters high i did my on vlogs on them for my twins to watch them
Many congratulations Ben and Rachel, you must be very proud of yourselves. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. You certainly had good weather all in all (been quite damp recently!!). ❤
@@Off.Day.Adventureswould be wonderful if you both did a "reflection" video now you're home (and hopefully fully recovered!) on your memories of the trip, what you enjoyed the most, what food and drink did you like the most and if there's anything you'll miss?! ❤
Fantastic series and fantastic couple. Love your personalities and attitude. Glad you enjoyed it and hope for more (and do some other walks in the UK!)
Dear Ben and Rachel, thanks for sharing your journey with us. Bath is a great place to have finished your journey ( we are lucky enough to have a daughter studying at university there), so get to visit on many occasions. Hopefully your vlogs have reminded all us Brits on just how stunning our country is, and convinced all of us to get out and about. Looking forward to further trips by the two of you. Might we suggest something like Yorkshire next time - it is not known as God's own country for nothing (and that is from a Sothern Softie!!).
Is it silly to say that i feel proud of you both for doing this, well done, i have really enjoyed your videos, i hope you had a great time, despite all the pain and blisters, please come back and see us soon, but perhaps, take it easy next time, lots of beautiful countryside to explore.
Wow!!! Guy’s congratulations 🎉👏👏👏🎉 I have loved every minute of this hike so relaxing and enjoyable to watch, you two are excellent presenters 👍😂 as well! I really hope you come back to the uk and do some more, like Hadrian’s wall 73 ish’ miles long might be a good challenge lol! But thanks again for such an epic watch! Cheers 🍻 🇬🇧💚🇺🇸
Binge watched the first eight. There obviously wasn't so much going on in this one, but you made it just as interesting with your banter & charming manner. We have some even better long distance paths, but so do other spots in Europe.
What a fantastic result. Memories that will last forever. You deserve more than the few subscribers that you currently have. It is said that Americans never walk anywhere but you certainly made up for it. I could see that you were struggling sometimes, Rach, and that made it all the more awesome.
Well done I enjoyed your walk, I did it with my son 10 years ago a great memory for us and relived via your trip. Beautiful English countryside is at its best when it is human sized, with pubs and guesthouses marking your journey. Well done you two.
I came across your first vlog by chance & have enjoyed every one of them. Have to say I feel a little sad that your trip is over, but so glad that you had a good time despite the challenges (& blisters).☺️
I just binge watched all your Cotswold Way videos. I was captivated for some reason, I guess you are both very nice people, doing something I would like to do, and it is always interesting to see your country through the eyes others. Plus you got to experience and understand Pub culture in the very best way possible.
Hey ! How are the hips and blisters now !? Loved watching your videos and loved watching them again with "Mark from the States". Happy Christmas to you and Good Health today and always. x
What a fabulous series, Iv watched all of them and the only thing I can think of that would help other people do this , is how much did it cost and how did you know how far apart the best over night stops would be
Bye, Bye, American Pie playing has to be the most fitting end to this?! Especially, as American pie was invented in England.. LOVE it. And I have LOVED this series. Well done to you both!
Great stuff, enjoyed reliving my own treks on the CW via your adventures (I once walked from Bath to the woods near Hawksbury Upton, the reverse of your days 9, 8 and half of 7) in one day of torrential rain. Camped in the wood that night. I do not recommend. Of course now you need to re-do it with the Selsley Hill optional route (Nice Stroudwater Canal section) and at Stinchcombe Hill did you take the short or long option? Did you know passing through Doddington Park that is is owned by James Dyson? Great vlog, thanks again. I also recommend the Ridgeway, South Downs Way and the Hadrian's Wall path.
Really enjoyed all of these videos! 17 years ago I did some walking (lol hiking, why do Brits call it walking) in the Lake District - highly recommend some of those hikes too if you want to go back. I don't think I could do that kind of hiking - or what you did here - today. I know I said it before but Rach, you killed it. I 100% would have given up. Thanks for sharing! I doubt I'll ever do the whole thing but maybe next time I'm in UK I'll do some of it. Thanks for sharing your trip!
Really enjoyed this saga. I don't know why, but I think it is because it is just a pure & simple vlog. Look fwd to more. Love & congrats to your achievment.
Hello. Ok, I don't do this but your series made me want to write to you. I live in the Cotswolds and it takes a couple of Americans with blisters to remind me how lucky I am. You did so well. We see a lot of walkers who take months o complete it. I hope ou enjoyed it and I hope that there will be more videos. Take care and , remember, it is just one step after another. It would have good to have met you for a beer.
Really enjoyed watching you two, its been funny and really interesting, nice seeing you take in the english countryside, and well done 102 miles that takes some doing. Great couple. look forward to the next one.
Really enjoyed that series. You did great. If you come back again maybe do another British long distance trail like offas dyke, Hadrian's Wall, the coast to coast, south downs way or maybe the west highland way in Scotland or the south west coast path around Devon and Cornwall. So many lovely trails to do. Hope to see you again someday.
"I wanna feel that accomplishment." "I'll feel it . . . in that pub" 😂 edit - well done - thoroughly enjoyed the series. Binge-watched it all in one evening with some tins. Felt like you really took the audience with you. Camino de Santiago next please!
Very enjoyable and respect too for battling through the pain barrier - please add Vaseline to your first aid kit next time as a preemptive treatment for sore toes. I have done parts of this route myself but to see it all tackled was rather inspirational - well done 👍 Hope you enjoyed the Spa?
There are very few vlogs that you just don’t want to end. This is one of them. Wonderful series. Irrepressible good humour and optimism from these two. Will look forward to whatever you get up to next.
Thank you for watching! I had such a hard time wrapping this video up. Thank you so so so much!

RIGHT! It was perfect! Glad you were able to drink with us! ;)
Lovely Couple Nice video of my Country. Love is definitely what the World Needs Now .! .
Awww well done guys, loved watching your adventure, come to Yorkshire next where I live or the lake district, have a rest first though 😃👍👏👏👏
Well done you two, my wife and I walked it in 2017 while she was receiving chemotherapy for cancer. She was determined to finish it and sadly died a year later
Well done :-)
Congratulations on completing your walk! Absolutely loved the videos and loved that you enjoyed our English countryside so much!! We think you should look at the Two Moors Ways/Coast to Coast in the south west of England (very remote in parts but beautiful!) Or the South Downs Way in the South of England 😊
Sad it's come to an end... Time to watch again! Looking forward to your next adventure :)
Us too....thank you for watching!
Bravo! You have certainly inspired me to....er...sit and watch some other hiking vlogs haha.
Hahaha glad you enjoyed!
My admiration for both of you walking in the summer heat is boundless. As an Englishman, I'm well aware of how intense the heat can be here.If you ever do it again, please pick up some paracetamol and a tube of Germolene cream, which my daughter fondly referred to as "magic cream" when she was younger. It's great for everything-cuts, insect bites, stings, blisters-and I even used it for my two girls' nappy rash, or as you might call it, diaper rash.
Good tip! Can't believe how warm it was, but would do it again in a heartbeat!
Well done! Really enjoyed this series of vids. The English countryside is truly beautiful.
Come again :)
Thank you for watching!!

HAHA! I love that you commented BEFORE watching!
@@Off.Day.Adventures very well done. Beautifully presented, many points of interest and the comical sheep. Do keep up the walking and vids...

I was captivated for some reason, I guess you are both very nice people, doing something I would like to do, and it is always interesting to see your country through the eyes others. Plus you got to experience and understand Pub culture in the very best way possible.
Hey ! How are the hips and blisters now !? Loved watching your videos and loved watching them again with "Mark from the States". Happy Christmas to you and Good Health today and always. x
We are fully healed! Doing as much walking in Orlando as we can 😂 Happy Christmas to you as well! ♥️
Good job guys really enjoyed your travels along the Cotswold Way. Impressive achievement.
Thank you so much!
Fantastic. Hope you enjoyed time in England.
Fabulous, engaging videos. Keep up the good work.
I'm sorry these have ended. I enjoyed them so much.
Congratulations guys. Glad you enjoyed your time in the Cotswolds where i am very lucky to live. Come back soon.
Thank you for watching!
What a fabulous series, Iv watched all of them and the only thing I can think of that would help other people do this , is how much did it cost and how did you know how far apart the best over night stops would be
Bye, Bye, American Pie playing has to be the most fitting end to this?! Especially, as American pie was invented in England.. LOVE it. And I have LOVED this series. Well done to you both!
RIGHT!!!!! I get emotional just thinking about that song now! Thank you so much for watching!
Well done you two, I watched it all and really enjoyed it 😢
Brilliant. Well done!!!!
Thank you for watching!
Great stuff, enjoyed reliving my own treks on the CW via your adventures (I once walked from Bath to the woods near Hawksbury Upton, the reverse of your days 9, 8 and half of 7) in one day of torrential rain. Camped in the wood that night. I do not recommend. Of course now you need to re-do it with the Selsley Hill optional route (Nice Stroudwater Canal section) and at Stinchcombe Hill did you take the short or long option? Did you know passing through Doddington Park that is is owned by James Dyson? Great vlog, thanks again. I also recommend the Ridgeway, South Downs Way and the Hadrian's Wall path.
Thanks for watching! We would love to camp it one day! Ohhhh I wish I could say we did the long version...but we didn't. HA!
I have enjoyed following you on your adventures. I think you understand and appreciate the land I call home. South-West coastal path next please, lol.
Hey I loved following on your journey. I hope to do it year, and also the West Highland way.
Thanks for coming along!
Thanks for sharing your adventure! We go in September! We’re curious about the blackberries… what time of year did you go?
Really enjoyed all of these videos! 17 years ago I did some walking (lol hiking, why do Brits call it walking) in the Lake District - highly recommend some of those hikes too if you want to go back. I don't think I could do that kind of hiking - or what you did here - today. I know I said it before but Rach, you killed it. I 100% would have given up. Thanks for sharing! I doubt I'll ever do the whole thing but maybe next time I'm in UK I'll do some of it. Thanks for sharing your trip!
Thank you so much! Would love to do the Lake District!
Congrats to you both, Well Done =o)
Such a poetic end. Great vlogging.
Well done chaps! Will we see you back to do the Hadrian’s Wall Path or The Pembrokeshire Coast Path?
I hope we do! Thank you for watching!
Here's another vote for Pembrokeshire coast path. It's the most glorious coastal scenery you can imagine
Well done our American friends.
Thank you so much! Come visit Florida some time!
Such an epic walk! And two awesome individuals. Making us Yanks look good. I plan to hike the trail in September 2024 from Bath to Chipping Camden.
How fun!!! We've been thinking about doing it again, but start in Bath! Let us know how it goes!
Really enjoyed this saga. I don't know why, but I think it is because it is just a pure & simple vlog. Look fwd to more. Love & congrats to your achievment.
Can't wait for you guys to do the Camino de Santiago 😉
Hello. Ok, I don't do this but your series made me want to write to you. I live in the Cotswolds and it takes a couple of Americans with blisters to remind me how lucky I am. You did so well. We see a lot of walkers who take months o complete it. I hope ou enjoyed it and I hope that there will be more videos. Take care and , remember, it is just one step after another. It would have good to have met you for a beer.
Really enjoyed watching you two, its been funny and really interesting, nice seeing you take in the english countryside, and well done 102 miles that takes some doing. Great couple. look forward to the next one.
Really enjoyed watching your videos.
Well done guys , you did so well come back and do it when your reaching 40 😊. But yes more pubs next time ❤ from u.k
Really enjoyed that series. You did great. If you come back again maybe do another British long distance trail like offas dyke, Hadrian's Wall, the coast to coast, south downs way or maybe the west highland way in Scotland or the south west coast path around Devon and Cornwall. So many lovely trails to do. Hope to see you again someday.
Well done on completing it. Hope you enjoyed both the trail and the country.
"I wanna feel that accomplishment."
"I'll feel it . . . in that pub" 😂
edit - well done - thoroughly enjoyed the series. Binge-watched it all in one evening with some tins. Felt like you really took the audience with you.
Camino de Santiago next please!
Ahhhh thank you so much for watching! Hahah you get me ;)
Please come again, you are a lovely couple
Very enjoyable and respect too for battling through the pain barrier - please add Vaseline to your first aid kit next time as a preemptive treatment for sore toes. I have done parts of this route myself but to see it all tackled was rather inspirational - well done 👍 Hope you enjoyed the Spa?
Congratulations, I know it must have been hard climbing all those hills, thank you for another great video.
Fantastic series, congratz guys, been a pleasure to follow you both
👍🇬🇧
Hi from the UK 👋 🇬🇧 your next walk 🚶♂️ in the UK should be hadrians wall from one side of the UK to the other side 😊
hahaha we may need to train for that one! Thank you for watching!
Well Done ! I really enjoyed your commentary and observations during your walk .Best Wishes to you both from the United Kingdom .
Thank you so much!!!!
