Storm Trooper - have you seen him?
« on: October 06, 2011, 12:50:23 PM »
Has anyone else seen him? Post your pics if you have!!

We came across this guy, Jacob, who is walking from Perth to Sydney in his Storm Trooper rig to raise money for the Starlight Foundation.

He's walking around 45km per day, completely unassisted - just the trolley and a swag.

We stopped and chatted to him near Balladonia (WA).  His plan is to reach Sydney by the end of Feb.

I haven't seen him but when we were in Perth last year there were 2 storm troopers walking around the main mall. I wonder if it was him? The kids got photos with them.

Cheers

I asked him!  They are low-budget runners and he is well into his second pair.  Reckons he'll use 6 pairs for the trip.

Jacob stayed with my step-daughter and family when coming thru Manjimup.
On Facebook today he left Cocklebiddy, heading for the WA/SA border.   :cup: :cup: :cup:
