Record Breaking Attempt - Day 17

Hello everyone,
Paul has done it!  He finished his walk at the Southern Terminus Albany after 16 days, 8 hours and 15 mins.



This was what happened earlier!  With 17 kms more to go, Paul left Sandpatch Road at 8.30am with good weather temperature at 30oC.

This beats the old record of 16 days 15 hours and 40 mins by the Extreme Walkers Team set in 2005.
