They are all stoked to be cross the finish line and Debbie has been quoted as saying this was definately the most challenging XPD they have ever competed in. It took them all to the depths of their souls and then a little bit more!
Having watched the girls on this most epic 9 day adventure, we couldn't be more proud of them and what they have achieved which is truly amazing. Only 20 out of 47 teams who began this journey last week will complete the course before the cut off at 6pm tonight (only an hour away).
They celebrated in style with bubbles and pizza. The bubbles were quickly ditched for a cold beer which went down a treat. With minimal coaxing the Girls bombed into the hotel pool and washed off 9 days of grit, grime and hard work (poor other patrons of the hotel).
They are all in amazingly good physical condition for what they have been through. Zoe managed to get a leech in her eye this morning which Viv had to extract - yum. No major damage done.
So the only question remaining is can they shower and get back in time for the race party which starts at 6pm ? Actually the big challenge will be them keeping awake to enjoy the party!
So I'll sign off now and the next entry will be from the Macpac Girls on Top themselves to no doubt fill you in in more detail about their tremedous journey :)
