Ols At Koongawa
I moved toward Rest area just east of Koongawa with weather, light, and winter conditions shaping the way the day felt.
Photo number 1, a road sign we saw halfway through a 12k session.
Rest area just east of Koongawa was where we were aiming, but the bigger feeling was that another distant name was becoming real under my feet.
The landscape had changed, and often reminded me of the Somerset Levels - even occasionally seeing small hills that brought to mind Glastonbury Tor.
It was cold like England too, but the focus was on hitting our deadline for Adelaide.
Most of the work was not dramatic. It was the repeatable stuff: get moving, keep eating, manage the body, and let the crew turn the finish into the next start.
By the end of the walking, I had banked another 58.7 kilometres, and the accumulated total sat at 2336.7 kilometres.
The weather did not make the day meaningful by itself, but it changed the way every kilometre landed in my body.
