On indulgence and in relation to sporting events, I notify the House that a former member of this House, Pat Farmer, is within 48 hours of reaching the equator on his run from the North Pole. He would have travelled about 13½ thousand kilometres. According to his web tracker, he is 0.8251 degrees from the equator. He is about 91 kilometres away and he is travelling at 40 kilometres an hour, according to the tracker, which even for Pat is fast!
