Zali Steggall is no slouch. The independent MP for Warringah and slayer of former prime minister
Tony Abbott took on the daunting UTA100 ultra-marathon trail race through the Blue Mountains over the weekend.
The 100-kilometre track through the mountain range had a combined elevation gain of 4460 metres through the Golden Stairs, Leura Forest and Wentworth Falls.
