3 years ago, I ran the ‘Australian Alps Walking Track’, a beautiful 700km route passing through the country’s highest terrain.

Here are some stats:

- it took my mate and I 16 days
- carried all of our gear (10-14kg)
- left 6 drop bags stocked with food
- wore 1 pair of undies for 10 days straight (merino wool - IYKYK)
- lost 5kg of body weight
- raised $10k for an environmental conservation charity
- convinced 3 of our mates to crew & film us along the route
- climbed over 30,000 metres in total
- rain jacket leaked, leading me to get seriously cold and then sick
- saw at least 3 snakes per day
- passed thousands of kangaroos and brumbies
