Gold Coast Walking
I moved toward Southport with the day's people, support, and small human moments giving the kilometres their shape.
The closer we got to familiar names on the map, the stranger the scale of the whole thing felt.
Southport was where we were aiming, but the bigger feeling was that another distant name was becoming real under my feet.
Likely arriving at the South Bank parkrun start line after lunch (between 2 and 3pm perhaps?) we will be starting the day around 9am or so in Springwood, walking a fairly direct route in.
Keep an eye on this page for updates, and of course the spot tracker link.
The day lived in the small practical rhythm of the crossing: walking, waiting, checking in, eating, charging, sleeping, and setting up the next piece.
That gave me another 32.3 kilometres, and the accumulated total sat at 5501 kilometres.
That was the shape of so many HAA days: my feet doing the obvious work, and other people quietly making the impossible parts practical.
