Spot Messenger Trial

OK I have purchased a new toy. Its a Spot messenger 3! Wow you might say , its about the size of 2 match boxes and will be a way you can track my progress across the desert.
This is the link(hope it works that's why its called trial)
Graeme's Spot Mesenger
From the Spot messenger I can be plotted on a map, send an I'm OK , send a preset message, send a I'm ok but need help message and use it like a EPIRB/PLB (get me the hell out of here distress signal which hopefully I wont be needing)

Training Training Training.

My training in the past month has really started to ramp up. My aim for March is to get 10km per day minimum + half hour of stair training every second day , and on every other day take "foxy" out for Gully Road Hills ( Gully road is about 1.2 km long starts off slow with a nice pinch at the end.)
Today I have also been at training in the form of St Johns First Aid, I am completing the Remote Area Course which takes 3 days and is really hands on with heaps of scenarios. The course is great fun and if you have the time and money well worth it.
