The penultimate day

Today was the penultimate day so everyone was a little apprehensive. If we get through today we will almost certainly achieve our goal as Dave could walk the final marathon if necessary! If I know him though, he'll run it as fast as he can!

The day started with heavy rain which lasted for most of the run and it was cold which meant that I was really cold and wet cycling it. The run was the hilliest yet and Karl, one of the runners, struggled with his legs throughout but he did manage to finish it. Dave was going really well and set a fast past despite the hilly route.

Luckily the sun came out for the bike-leg which was great and the rolling roads and smaller hills meant that we went at a really good pace, especially compared to earlier in the week, and we were able to finish early for once.

It was also the first time that we used the bike mounted cameras and we now have some really good and different film footage which we will get online as soon as possible.

Wish us luck for tomorrow! And don't forget, if you would like to Donate, visit: www.justgiving.com/blinddavestop2toe
