** UPDATE WED 3rd June 09 **

I DID IT !!

One of my greatest achievements to date has finally happened, getting through my 3 day endurance challenge raising money for NZ Heart Children.
I had to have a small rearrangement with the bike leg as I suffered with major cramping on the way to Hanmer, so unfortunately had to cycle the remaining 140km after the marathon on Sunday!

Over the course of 72hrs here's what I managed...

FRIDAY
* Ran to & from the gym (7km)
* Weights
* Ran across the Port Hills, through Sumner and finishing in Cathedral Square
(35km in 3hrs30)

TOTALS:
Lifted 15,050kg weights and ran the equivalent of a full marathon

SATURDAY
* Weights
* Cycled to Hanmer

TOTALS:
Lifted 15,450kg weights and cycled 140km

SUNDAY
* Weights
* Ran the SBS Christchurch marathon in freezing conditions (finished in 4hrs30)
and then...
* Cycled the remaining 140km on my indoor trainer (took me five hours)

TOTALS:
Lifted 15,000kg weights, ran a marathon and cycled 140km on an indoor trainer

It was incredibly tough and I definately had some rough patches along the way, but finishing the final marathon was amazing. It's a good feeling knowing that I completed everything that I set out to and managed to overcome a few problems along the way (including a blister on my toe the size of a Malteser)! Ouch.
