Due to injury the fantastic 4 became the 3 amigos!! No Carolyn "cross training" McKeown this week due to a calf problem.
We set off from the Boathouse nice and early at 7am and Sandra headed off whilst the boys got ready (allegedly we would catch her at the top of the hill!!!). We didn't catch her till the 10 mile mark!!!!
A quick stop at 10 miles and Jim pulled something out of the front of his pants, just as Sandra was sucking on her tube!!! Oo er!!! Turns out it was nothing sinister but a bag of jelly, which he duly offered around. Can't say we were all rushing for a bit of jelly that had been warming around his groin for 10 miles!!
As usual the turn at 10 signalled the sprint for home with Sandra heading the way at incredible pace (definitely a drug test needed!!). We averaged 9:04 for the first 10 and finished at 8:49 average!!!!
A brilliant effort by the 3 amigos finishing in well under 3 hours!!!
However on a negative side-we missed our team mate!! We also missed our song clue!!!!!!!!!
Definitely a low budget week-no clue, no Carolyn and nearly no blog!!!
Lets hope Sean and Jim stay awake at the Enchanted Ball tonight!!! Carolyn will be ok (she's probably just getting out of bed!!!!)
FANTASTIC 4 AND THE QUEST FOR SUB 4!! Follow the fantastic 4-4 friends embarking on breaking a sub 4 hour marathon, in some cases again and other cases for the first time!
