I can tick off bucket list item #18: I have flown over Lake Eyre. I shall put some pictures up on Facebook in due course. Meanwhile I think I should knock over a couple more bucket list items in the next six months. Buying a brand new car looks like a good item to deal with next; any suggestions which car? And then of course there's running a 50k ultra, which is planned for April.

The ACT government has released a proposal for its Centenary Trail (see http://www.tams.act.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0006/236274/Centrail_Proposed_Route_20111103_02.pdf). Does this give us more running trail options? I hope so. Or does it mess up some existing trails? I hope not. Either way the Centenary Trail looks like being something we might run along one day or two.
