3 sleeps and counting....

It's here!

This Friday morning at 8.30am we will be taking a bit of a stroll.

Let me define stroll for you....

Katherine, Renee, Bridgid and myself will be walking 100kms in less then 24 hours, and climbing a total 1km (thats 2 1/2 times the height of the world's tallest building).

We have been training for this day for the past 3 months. We have walked in training almost 300kms with our longest walk at 42kms.

I have consumed more litres of Gatorade in the past 3 months then I had consumed beer in my first year of Uni.... I will let you ponder that thought for a second.....

We are ready, almost itching to go. There is still some residual denial, but we won't worry about that (in the true spirit of denial).

The past week the weather forecast has been on everyone's mind and everyone else's too as they keep sending us the forecast. Thanks guys!

I might take this opportunity to thank everyone that has been supporting us in someway, donations, encouragement and even just acknowledgment of "100kms! But that's just crazy!"

The Moovettes would also like to take the opportunity to thank our official support crew in advance. Marc, Stephen, Stu and Mary, please forgive us for the demands we will be placing on you in three days time. We wouldn't be able to attempt this without you backing us up.
