Track Towns and Supplies

Did you have any issues finding food/supplies? Yes
I wanted to challenge myself and I did the track on a vegan diet (No animal products) after my mum told me i couldn't do it. The first days where hard I overpacked I started with a 30 kg pack and got it down to 20kg - 18kg.

General Comments
End to End I can’t believe that I have completed the bibluman track. From when I was a 10 I couldn’t wait to walk the whole thing and Now at 18 I know I have. This last month and a half has been some ups and downs but I have keep on fighting and moving forward. Thanks to everyone that I have meet alone the way supporting me. I can say that with out the Bibluman track community I could not of achieved this end to end. I have come sooo far but the journey has just begun.
