Video at 6km race in Alice Springs
Please reread previous post as I have just uploaded a lot of photos and added more text
Thanks to my support driver Michael for shooting this video of my birthday speech after the Alice Springs running and walking club presented me with a birthday cake at the end of the 6km race on Saturday morning. As always those km’s don’t count. Please press HERE to view the video which Michael went to huge trouble to convert from his system to Youtube. Thanks again Michael.
I am going to take another rest day today Tuesday and hit the toad on Wednesday 1,500km north for Darwin!
We are staying in a really nice backpacker hostel with great and cheap internet, so both of us getting lots of work done.
I almost forgot to say that yesterday we had tea with the mayor or as his title reads ‘ His Worship the Mayor Damien Ryan ‘ mayor of Alice Springs. We got some nice pictures chatting in his office, I will upload soon. Thanks to everyone for their best wishes and comments.
Also a very happy birthday to my Mam today Tuesday as her birthday is just three days after mine. I love you Mam, Hope you have a wonderful day X
My earlier part of the Mainland was not blogged too well. Here I just want to thank people again for their wonderful help and am so sorry for not getting the chance to do justice to your wonderful help.

Thanks to Robyn for running with me and to her husband Mitch also for putting us up in their wonderful hotel the Balcony Hotel in Murraybridge

Ash's parents Barbara and Guy. Ash is my friend from Ireland and we had a lovely night staying on his parents farm.

Thanks Kevin. It must be the volume control on your computer because I can play it!
Today Fri I finished 10km past Aileron roadhouse and commuted back for 50km, Thurs 63, Wed late start out of Alice Springs and early finish for 30km.
Total 29,671km for 685 road days. North of Alice things this side of the Outback are a lot more interesting.

Just saying hello Tony. Was in that part of the world many years ago. Went from Alice to Mount Isa and then Cairns. Had my tent stolen and was attacked by an emu getting off the bus. Happy days!
