Grit

Grit
Step by step, breath by breath, the walk.  The long walk left many with aching legs and destroyed ankles but I, Riley Burgiss, had something else.  I too had aching legs and busted ankles but another thing had hit me … I was literally breathless, no breath at all.  It was a real struggle climbing the hill but in the end I, and many others, had conquered the almighty Ruahine Range and reached Sunrise hut.
