They have a run here in Tassie called the 'point to pinnacle'.
It is 21.4 km long
yeah that's not to bad I hear some of you say.
But there is a catch
It starts at sea level
and finishes at 1270m above sea level.
Sounds like fun (for the clinicaly insane)
Anyway it's on this Sunday
A couple of Soldiers from my unit have entered
They're only walking, but in full battle Kit
For the military folk on this site you can relate to how heavy that is.(about 30kg)
They are also planning to do it in under 4 hrs.
Lucky me being the units Combat Fitness Leader I have been volunteered
(Once again for the Military people here you know how the volunteer system works in the Defence Force) To be their safety supervisor
Yiks
I don't mind running or stomping
but up Mt Wellington
I'll let you all know how it goes after Sunday

Good luck to you and your group!  That's quite a climb.  Do you get to coast down on bikes or skateboards or something?  In full gear?
