I know there are a lot of people (me included) with a lap of Australia quite high on their bucket list, but have you ever considered running the route instead of driving? I can't even get my head around that idea... :eek:

These nutters (and I use that term as a mark of respect) are due to finish today and set a new world record tomorrow for 366 marathons in 366 days!

Now that's commitment to an idea (and a good cause to boot).

I just saw that on the news. I think it absolutely outstanding that they have done this.
