The boys were looking forward to resting their butts and having a run today!! However a wee 10k would have been fine!! Unfortunately the challenge ahead was a 30 mile run, including some decent climbs out of Perth!!
The weather was perfect, although the cold wind was still blowing in our faces!!! Maybe one day it will be at our back!!
We managed to keep moving at a decent pace and even walked whilst eating to make sure the miles kept ticking by without wasting any time!
It was definitely our toughest physical challenge so far, reflected in the almost 4000 calories we burnt!!! Calories weren't the only thing burnt though-Des's legs and Sean's nose both took a roasting!!!
Anyway we made it and even found a few short cuts bringing the mileage under 29 miles!!!!
A wee back massage at Bannatynes and dinner at Carlucci's helped ease the pain but the boys are starting to walk like John Wayne!! Achilles and quads are all suffering, but what the heck it's for a good cause!!
Anyway highlight of the day was when we were driving home from dinner and randomly saw a peacock walking down the street!!! (photo to follow!!!)
