Food/Supplies Comments
Managed to lose 6kg! Definitely needed more food as I went along. Probably should have carried more but wanted to keep my pack weight down. Now trying to regain a couple of KGs!!
Favourite Section
Loved it all but the days on the coast and in the tingle forest were highlights.
Highlights
Reaching the ocean.
Loved the Showgrounds and the canoe crossings.
Arriving in track towns! 
Personal Reactions
It was a challenging walk. Although my fitness improved as I went along, I was more fatigued towards the end than I thought I would be.
Wildlife
Loved the roos and the snakes! Birds were beautiful.
Your Best Equipment
Walking poles.
I also love my Mont Moondance tent.
Your Worst Equipment
Rain gear - failed in a storm and I got drenched!
Advice for Others
Training really helps and makes the first weeks easier.
Test all your equipment before you start.
Don’t rush, especially if you have lots of time.
Savour the experience.
