Yes indeedy my lovelies, hate to blow ones trumpet AGAIN on this but the Oxfam Trailwalk 2010 hit a milestone today.
So, out of bed at 4.30am, haul big fat arse into Woodhill Forest where me and the team go for the Holy Grail.....that is. a 50km walk through paddock, on beach, loose metal track, up hill, down hill and everything in between.
Glad to say we fecking nailed it. All up inc 4 pit stops we did the walk in 10 hrs 56 mins. Previous record for a team over that particlular course was 11 hrs 45 minutes, so we really gave it a kick up the guts.
Even managed to have a look at the Yogi Bear movie set in the woods while there, impressive and no mistake.
A coulpe of MX'ers were giving it heaps as well, young fellas enjoying the day gawd bless 'em.
Anyway, we hit the 50km mark in record time and 4 weeks ahead of schedule so big slaps on back all round. Now the endurance training starts as of MOnday, oh the fecking joy.
Mrs Max cooked me a huge feed of roast chook and spuds, even washed me back fro me in the bath....angel that woman.
So, there we have it. Pretty cattle trucked so will lay off the piss tonight and have a few after the '20km in 2 hrs 50 min' speed walk tomorrow.......
It's a good life, eh
