is very dogged when collecting debts. Mary chooses not to lounge around on beachs
locally. Last year she went to Cambodia, this year walked the Kokoda trail .

6 died on track walking so far. Oldest walker 83. Record time is 16 hours, however
it took her 9 days. Trail is 96 km long and very step up and donw. You need good
preparation and self discipline.
