"90 mile road"

As I head out for the days evening part of the running I am greeted by the
"90 Mile Road" signs, announcing that I am entering Australia?s longest
straight road.

- 140km of straight forward. No curves, no bends, no trees no nothing..
except heaps of kangaroos. Dead.. :-( ...and alive :-)


PS: The reports from the Nullabor desert are a bit delayed and kept
shorter than usual due to lack of phone and internet connections

- As you can see from the temperatures above we have once again a most
pleasant surprise of cold weather out here.

We were warned that the mercury would get up around the mid. 40c during
daytime in the Nullabor - so far we have been v. lucky to have only one
day like that; and most days about mid. 20c. Great weather for running
and recovering :-)

Still I try to keep the "30km in the morning + 30km in the evening"
routine as the sun is quite sharp at midday.
