Take that New Jersey!

Sunday, April 29th, 2007

I have just returned from completing my 100 mile walk from New York City to Philadelphia. I took the ferry from Pier 11 in NYC to Atlantic Highlands. I spent one day walking down the coast of NJ, before heading West. It took me 4 days to cross from Atlantic Coast to Philly. I could’ve done it in 3 days, but I didn’t want to walk through Camden late at night.

I have some blisters, and my feet are sore. I definitely need to invest in some good walking shoes, other than that I’m a little sunburnt, but I feel great.

There’s over 3 hours of footage that I want to cut into a 10-15 minute pitch video that will encourage some kind of funding. I don’t know if I even want to do the whole thing if I don’t have anyone come with me.

It would almost be a waste to do it by myself, the documentary that results from this will be 100 times better if someone else holds the camera, I just need significant funding to pay these people.

New video will be posted soon!

It begins!

I spent all day yesterday walking around new york city. My friend Andrew came with me and got a lot of really funny footage. I can’t wait to get back to Philly so I can get some of it edited. I will stay in New York until Monday or Tuesday when I will start my walk through New Jersey. I have gig in Cherry Hill, NJ on Friday so I have to cover a lot of ground next week.

Training

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2007

I have been walking several miles a day to prepare for my walk. Yesterday thanks to some good weather I went for a good walk to new jersey. I travelled through camden almost to Cherry Hill before turning around. Anyone who has never walked across the Benjamin Franklin Bridge should do it sometime when it’s nice out. I walked about 12 miles in total yesterday, I could walk 20 in a day easily. Today I hope to walk at least 15 because it’s supposed to be cold this weekend.
