Birmingham Main Line - Old Main Line

This is my mission to walk all 2,000 miles of Britain's canals and waterways. In this episode, I walk a large section of the Birmingham Old Main Line from Smethwick Junction to Tipton. This walk took me through nice stretches of urban greenery but also wound its way below vast stretches of motorway bridges and graffitied industrial buildings. There is over 100 miles of canal making up Birmingham's Canal Navigations (more than Venice apparently) and I'll be walking them all in between other longer canal towpaths. To find out more about the Canal and Rivers Trust and the amazing work they do to maintain the British canal network go here: https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/ After a tough year (2024) suffering with a bad ulcerative colitis flare-up, I decided to walk all 2,000 miles of Britain’s canal towpaths to rebuild my physical fitness, conquer my anxiety about leaving the house, and reconnect with the world outside. It’s more than just a personal challenge. It’s also about raising awareness of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the incredible work carried out by Crohn’s & Colitis UK. To find out more about Crohn's and Colitis UK go here: https://crohnsandcolitis.org.uk/ To make a small donation to support the work of Crohn's and Colitis UK, which makes such a huge difference to sufferers of IBD like myself go here and be awesome: https://www.justgiving.com/page/walkt... If you’ve ever struggled with the fear, isolation, and exhaustion that comes with chronic illness, I hope this journey inspires you to keep up the fight. You’ve got this! Join me as I take on this long-distance challenge in sections, one walk, one canal, one pint at a time. I’ll be documenting the whole adventure here on YouTube and on my social media channels. So, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and follow along as I walk all 2,000 miles of Britain’s canals. NOTE: I am not being sponsored for any of the gear I talk about in this video. This is simply the gear I've been using. #canalwalk #hikingadventures #ibdawareness
