Australia 17 April: Jindabyne, NSW - Adaminaby, NSW

Perfect weather

The morning mist rises from Lake Jindabyne.

It turned out the Jindabyne "parkrun" was taking place about 800 m from our accommodation.

Sarankhuu came first in a field of around 50 participants.

The women's team started their journey by taking the torch out onto Lake Jindabyne on a stand up paddle board.

We were met by Councilor John Castellari in Berridale of the Snowy Monaro Regional Council.

We were delighted to meet John who was very enthusiastic about the Peace Run and a dedicated public servant of the region.

Peter Greenaway takes his first steps with the torch.

Luke and Rathin share their miles.
