Sore bum and leg muscles

This morning when I woke my whole body felt stiff. When I got out of bed to walk my bum and leg muscles ached. When I complained Rob laughed at me.
Why am I in this stiff, achy mess?
Because Rob and I decided we’d do the Round the Bays yesterday. It’s a 8.4km run* along Auckland Waitemata Harbour finishing in St Heliers Bay. 75,000 people entered!
Rob ran it in 43 minutes!! It took me 89 minutes. Just under an hour and a half! I was very pleased with myself.
After the run* we went up the big hill to Glover Park, where Rob’s company (who had sponsored us and gave us cool t-shirts) had set up a marquee with a BBQ and drinks for us! So we had some food and drinks and then had to start the hike back to the car. Which I was not at all amused at. Rob, who had been waiting 45 minutes for me to finish, was full of energy and had no problems except listening to me whine.

The run is for charity and the money goes towards four different teen related foundations.

I feel great for doing it and am definiteley going to enter next year!

*I only ran for about 10 minutes and walked the rest. Although it was a brisk walk!
