A man with a beard and short hair, wearing a dark athletic shirt, is sitting in a restaurant or pub, holding a glass of beer.

A 50-year-old man combining his weight loss journey with his love of pubs.

I have decided to visit the nearest 50 pubs to my house as the crow flies. I must walk to each pub starting each day at home, however in the interest of sanity and public health (falling in a river for example drunk) I may get a lift home or use public transport.

The Area

My house is in the centre of the map below. I will visit Runcorn and Widnes to the north, windmill hill to the east, Kingsley, Norley and crowton to the south and Helsby, Dunham on the hill to the very east.
