What an adventure!
It rained the entire time and we were wet through pretty quickly. But we soldiered on through mud and high water, even encountering a few leeches along the way.
After 17 hours on the trail we made a team decision to call it a day at the 50km mark.
Lots of fun in very challenging conditions.
Thanks everyone for cheering us on; you smashed our fundraising target!

****************************
You have helped us reach our target of $2000 so Pete, true to his word, has shaved off his beard!
The public de-bearding took place at The Bridgewater Inn last Sat evening.
*************************
Not long to go now! - In a few days our team of four, 'Beardless Heroes', will be walking, limping then crawling for 100km all day and night in support of The Wilderness Society. We will be climbing mountains, crossing rivers and enduring aches, pains, cramps, chaffing and blisters all in the name of the environment.
A huge thank you to Pete S & Tori who have confirmed they will be our support crew in the Blue Mountains for the event. You guys are awesome!
Thank you also to all of our friends and family who have donated already, bought chocolates at work and attended our family movie fundraiser in support. It is very much appreciated. Thanks also to our wonderful baby sitters & folks who have lent us gear for the event!
We will be posting to Facebook during the event so you can check our progress!
Thanks everyone.
See you on the other side. x
