And just like that, after 26 hours of putting one foot in front of the other, it’s done. 160km from Brisbane to Byron Bay, all on foot. What an experience.

The first 40km felt effortless—I was flying. Then the heat hit (felt like 32 degrees) and I was cooked. Once I worked through that, I pushed hard to around 100km. I’d thought hitting triple digits for the first time would feel special, but when you still have 60km left, it turns out it doesn’t feel special at all 😅.

By 145km, running was no longer an option. But I kept moving, step by step, until I made it to that very last kilometre.

The support I received was beyond anything I could have imagined. I never thought so many people would care about some random bloke attempting something unnecessarily hard. Your messages meant more than I can put into words.

To those by my side, I honestly don’t know how to thank you enough.
– @nicholas_flannery , @julesday99 , and @_shaun_hamilton_ , who got me to halfway with world-class food and drink service.
– @benjross_ , @_leolf_ , and @neil.bantwal who literally ran me to the finish line. What was meant to be a 10-hour stint turned into 16 hours, on basically no sleep.
– My parents, who somehow still smile while watching me batter my body.
– And @finn_dredge , who casually ran 48km of his own in the process.

A special thanks to @benographer and @toan_two_three, who captured almost every second just to have endless hours of footage to cut into what will hopefully become a truly inspiring doco.

The stats:
🏃‍♂️ 200,000+ steps
🔥 ~15,000 calories burnt
💤 0 hours slept
🍴 2,600g carbs consumed

Humbled. Grateful. Semi-Broken. But beyond proud.
