Good to catch up with . Our last runs together were in the Alps so it made a lovely change to be trail running the Blue Mountains just outside of Sydney!

The dawn chorus at ten mile hollow was worth getting out of bed for. The best alarm anyone could ask for. Welcome back to the land down under.

“I come from a land down under
Where women glow and men plunder.
Can you hear, can you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.”

After 8 hours on the bike and a final 16km that broke me, I made it to this beautiful place. The only signs of life were from the Watt Buddha Dhamma meditation centre, 5 minutes up the road. I can see why you would put a Buddhist meditation centre right here - I’ll be back at some point I can tell.

I’m happy to travel all day on my bike if places like this are the reward.

After lugging my bike all the way to Australia I couldn’t wait to get out on it. I’ve just done a 220km route following the Hawkesbury river and the Old Great Northern Road which was built by convicts between 1830-1836 and abandoned just as it was completed.

From quiet roads, to smooth gravel and then some of the gnarliest technical mountain bike riding I’ve done in a while (on a gravel bike). Two nights bush camping, plenty of solitude and a slightly broken body that now needs some time off the bike! That’s a great introduction to riding in this country!

A quick getaway to a new city was just what I needed - a walking and eating tour of Lyon was the perfect way to unwind! It was incredibly freeing to escape the mountains and let go of the pressure to be constantly doing something. For once, I just got to be, free to relax in my own skin. And I got to hang out with a best friend too!

What a week we just had with and . Running around the Bernese Oberland and then racing the Eiger Ultra races from Grindelwald on Saturday. We had such fun, words just can’t describe. New friends made and memories for a lifetime. And this was work for me! 😂🙏😂

Another beautiful Pueblo Blanco. Antequera is a lovely sleepy Andalusian town you could easily spend a few days relaxing and visiting the surrounding countryside.

I’m heading into Malaga today which I’ve been told is so much more than an airport destination! I hope so as I’ve got two nights and plenty of time before I fly to Geneva on Wednesday.
