Will is sadly leaving us to go back to Blighty for good. As a last bash he organised a mini race for all of us. He found a cool phone App call Loquiz where he set out an orienteering type course with a three hour time limit. Different check points were worth different amounts depending on their difficulty. We had a choice of how we got to them, Running, biking, paddling or however else you wanted.
teams of two, i was paired with Jo. Three hours and the rest you can see below. A very good fun afternoon – some racing competitively others not so much……
after the race we all retired to the pubs and then onto a gig where the night got messy.

- Will had designed a swim into the course as well
- which was in the middle of the boating lane
- jo avoiding boats in the Swan river

- this is how Mark and Ackers did the race, inside someones car! they called it initiative, we call it cheating!
