Run sail run sail

I have spent the week sailing the James Bourke down the coast. I have had some great impromptu runs At our stops.
Run 1 on Monday 21st Jan was 10k from Port Macquarie marina to Findleys beach and back. Started slowly as the sea legs wore off and was able to come home strongly
Run 2 on Tue 22nd. We arrived Forster at 6pm and I ran straight out of town and up to the top of Cape Hawke. Very surprised that I found the energy to make it. A magnificent run arriving at the top of the steep climb right on sunset. Then ran down and did shopping a Woolies and carried it 2k back to boat. 20k all up.
Wed 23rd found us in Forster all day with mechanical and weather issues. Did a 10k circuit around Forster/Tuncurry going from one shop to the next for parts.
Thu 24th no run. Spent the first half of the day recovering from the thunderstorm and gale we encountered off Boomerang Beach. Sheltered in Seal Rocks till. 1pm when we set off for the 24 hour run to Long Bay.
Now finally reaching sydney on Friday.
