Driving from Melbourne to Alice Springs in the new car

After I decided to buy Laura and Paul's car the next thing was to drive it back to Alice Springs from Melbourne.  Dad came along for the ride which took four days.  We drove via Birdwood in South Australia then up through Port Augusta along the Stuart Highway to Alice Springs.

First 10 km Run

I was up ridiculously early this morning so I went for a walk that turned out to be a run due to the cold temperature.  In the end I just kept going all the way to the 10 km mark.  I wasn't going fast, just fast enough.  I'm impressed I was able to keep going.
