Big Octember, the 474km Ultra Challenge begins

Hit the ground running yesterday, for the first 30km at least!

Awesome scenery all day as we ran 100km from Apollo Bay to the Twelve Apostles. Such a lovely group of runners and supporters in action all day, it was hard to feel anything but grateful as we kept the ocean on our left and punched on along beaches, brutal staircases and switchbacks, rolling fast sections, and National Parks death traps. More on those later.

Here’s a tiny portion of my day at the Great Ocean Walk 100s.
