Remember Jacob French, the guy walking from Sydney to Perth in Stormtrooper armour to raise awareness and money for the Starlight Foundation? He’s a dead set champ, and now you can track his progress courtesy of his shiny new Spot GPS device. Here’s a map of where he’s got to so far.
The updates aren’t real time, but as you can see, Jacob is updating his Facebook page with image updates. You can also follow him on Twitter, and donate to Trooper Trek. Jacob may already be about a quarter of the way to his fundraising target of $50,000 — but it’s a 4100km walk, and he’s still got a long way to go. Safe travels soldier!
