For those of you who are curious about the Kokoda Challenge Race in PNG (the real one that is done on the Kokoda Track on PNG.)  This article describes what it is like to do it.

Matt had asked permission to use a couple my images and I loved how he used it in his article.  So I've inserted the actual photos I took that are in his article.  The one above is of Brendan and others.
