Day three was been another good day! The first 10 kms went nice and quick with a completely flat road however the rest of the day became quite hilly but the scenery was amazing so I didn't mind too much! After spending the day climbing up hills I devoloped a sore spot in my thigh which got quite bad at the end but didn't slow me down much! We stayed at the Ballina Riverside Apartments which are super awesome! The manager is a massive animal lover too, he even raised a Gibbon among many other animals and told us some really fun stories :D Neil has been doing a great job and enjoying the journey! Quarter of the way there!!! Day four took off to a great start and ran the first 20 kms in no time! However after the 20 km stop my left thigh started hurting again and got worse as the day went on. I didn't let that stop me though, I pushed through and kept up a good pace. It was completely flat the whole way and I only had to follow one road until the end so that helped things go along a bit qui...cker! I had a few people waving and tooting their horns today, thats nice :D Neil bogged the car in some mud and had to get a tow truck to pull it out, a kind police officer tried to help push it out but to no avail, oh well the tow truck did the job! The weather was super great again today, it did start off cold but got nice and warm during the day, we are pretty lucky with the weather so far ;D I ran 70 kms in total with Neil coming to run the last couple with me! Saw about three Kangaroo's too, nice to see some Aussie wildlife! |
