Run Down Under

Holy smokes! It has been a month since my last blog, and close to a week since my last run. I'm on vacation in Australia, roadtripping around central NSW. Before that I was burried at work and burried even more by more work on top of that. It has been nice to get all that out of the way and relax for a while. Yesterday I got to sqeeze in a short 4.7 mile run in Warrenbungles National Park in NSW. The run made up for being short by also being slow. I'm not too worried about it, gimme a break I'm on vacation. :) The park is beautiful, the trail is narrow and runs through the woods and winds its way up towards the peaks of jagged rocks. The morning was cool and full of mosquitos. The trail winds back and forth across a deep cut creek with numerous wooden bridges. Almost all of which were closed because of recent flooding and possible damage. This meant that frequently the path was bypassing bridges and diving headlong into the streambed. I couldnt help but smiling over hoping from stone to stone, karate kid style, across a perfect stream in a perfect lush green forest. No people were to be seen on the trail, but there were numerous kangaroo families, which would dart of the trail and sit and watch me pass from the safety of ten feet away. :) it was a good run

In other news. I'm still looking for donations. Every little bit helps. As of yet, I haven't found any big corporate sponsorships and I'm about out of ideas. Aside from spending the bulk of my lifes savings, I'm still coming up short. Please help if you can and send this link to your buddies

G'day and happy tailwinds
