Going Old School at 90,000 metres

I went old school on the music choice today and had a decent rowing session the The Smiths - Oh yes, back to the 80's!
If any of you have been following my progress on Google maps you may have noticed that even though I have traveled the equivalent of 56 miles I don't seem to have moved very far on my map. There is a new plan of action - I am not going to hug the coastline quite as tightly and traverse spans of water with more straight lines to get further around the coastline. If I continue at the rate I am going I won't even get to North Wales in one million metres.
