Join me for Day 1 of my solo hike on the Murrumbidgee Discovery Track. Today is a 14.4 km section from Casuarina Sands to Kambah Pool with many ups and downs as we skirt the edge of the Aussie bush and rural landscapes along the Murrumbidgee River. Be treated to breathtaking views and a diverse landscape.

Sadly there is no camping permitted along this track, but don't forget to tune in next week for Day 2 (after I have a stopover at home before cracking on).

I am incredibly grateful to all those who have supported me over the last 5 years to get to this point - a point we never thought would be possible! I definitely shed a few tears on the approach to Kambah Pool when I realised it was the furthest I'd physically walked in over 5 years and that I was finally capable and able to walk such a distance after my foot blew up. It just goes to show even with a chronic condition, how a good support network, management plan and perseverance can pay off. Love you all x
