We finished the Half Marathon third leg this morning.  It was warmer today -> 7C, nearly had to take my jumper off!  Meg is a good little pacer.  She pushed me to run faster than I thought I could and she proved to herself that she can run a longer than 5km distance and back it up over 3 days.  I am very proud of us both and actually got quite emotional at the finish.  Justin was at the end point with the girls, they had made a sign and had a ribbon across the path.  We ran to the line  and crashed through the ribbon like the winners of a marathon.  Then Amy and Jess presented us with our medals.  It was a lovely family moment.

After that, we headed over to Cafe Injoy for a big breakfast to satisfy our hungry and worn out selves.  It was perfect.

 

great Challenge and well achieved.
