NO SURRENDER: I was invited to run across Timor Leste, which is one of Australia’s closest neighbours- to our North. It’s a small and slender country that’s been at war, on and off, for 500 years. With ten other runners from all over the world, and with a mix of local and Aussie guides, we ran 100km over 5000m of dusty, steep, coffee-laden country.
