#33. Sign up for the 12-hour Spring Challenge

Oh dear...what have we done?!

In a possible bout of foolishness, the Mighty Midgets have signed up for the 12-hour Spring Challenge - the big girl's version of the 6-hour which we have successfully completed in the past. And it definitely will be a challenge. The idea is that the top teams will finish in 12 hours, so we're expecting to be out on the course for 18 hours or so. Arrgh!

Luckily, we've signed up super early and fear will be a huge motivator when it comes to training! No longer will our training be able to be dominated by tapering! On the plus side, it will definitely help me to be rid of the Antartic excesses and make the most of the Christchurch winter!

In fact, training has started already with a superb trip up Mount Richardson over the weekend in glorious weather.


Here's to a good winter of trips and training!
