New shoes, happy feet and last run before a rest day – under bright blue skies

Happy feet!

There was not a ton of choice at the local sports shop, but enough to find a pair of shoes that fit. I was very happy this morning to start the run properly booted! As soon as I hit the road, everything felt alright. The past few weeks I had been continuously dealing with adjustments, what a great feeling to finally get this problem behind me.

Past the aboriginal centre of Ceduna

The run today took me through the quarantine station at the entry to Ceduna. No fruits or veg allowed. That means I did not carry my apple as usual. Well, I can buy one when I run through Ceduna, it’s not that big a deal. As I passed the station, the ladies on duty just cheered me on anyway, not checking my backpack.

On the trail run towards Wirrulla

I carried on running past Ceduna, on the way towards Port Augusta which I will reach in 10 days. The road past Ceduna is even more quiet than the Nullarbor. Less road trains, less caravans… I found a trail running parallel to the road which takes my mind off the (little) traffic there is. And now, we’re on to a rest day in Ceduna, after 12 continuous marathons. Time to enjoy a bit of the Bay and the delicious oysters!
