And away we go!

Well - here we are.

About 100 days or so since I started this blog at the beginning of this journey and we are now at the end of it - Well, at least the end of this part of it....

Those 100 days went bloody quickly. Feels like we've hardly started training and it was time to taper - But, in hindsight, I think we've given it a pretty good shot. We've all made improvements, and despite occasional wailings and misgivings we're all pretty much in the best shape we could be with the time that we had.

I'm personally amazed by what the other team mates around me have done - Going from a wheezing 10km run and struggling with pushups, to 20kms without any real stress and performing all sorts of physical feats we would never have considered before.

This week will be the test of how all that preparation has gone, and to see how much we're capable of - physically and mentally. I'm looking forward to seeing how that goes.

This will be the last entry therefore - We're heading off in a few hours to get down there tonight before volunteering tomorrow and running on Sunday. It's been fun keeping a record of the progress to date, and I look forward to reporting back in a few days time (if I survive/return!!!)

Good luck to all you udder Mudders out there. Believe in yourself, look after your team (or at least your neighbour) and we'll come out smiling...
