General Comments

Started in 2002, but due to having a heart attack requiring a quadruple bypass, I continued in sections when my doctor gave the all clear. I never gave up and even went back and walked to Woolbales due to fires when we walked through that area.

Food/Supplies Comments

Bought food at each town we went through.

Favourite Section

Donnelly River area.

Highlights

Meeting interesting people.

Personal Reactions

A great sense of achievements after my heart attack.
