The day that is traditionally is reserved for ghouls and spooks to rise from the dead, accurately describes how the team looked this morning. The excess of the previous nights exertions are beginning to catch up with everyone, as "Paddy" Mac complained constantly of his bad back from his previous nights dancing escapades!Today had been a tough test with a total of 63 miles covered by the team and thankfully the weather has been good for the three days, which is more than can be said of PO "Terry" Coggley`s "Dits" and "Robbie" Roberts map reading!
The public of Shaftsbury where extremely generous, donating over £150 in just 2 hours outside Tesco`s.
AB "Rushie" Rush leads the way into Andover.
The Lads are beginning to feel the strain of the run today. Even "Crazy Wiggy" Bennett, who recently ran over 200km through the Amazon rain forest, is feeling the strain.
"My legs are stiffening up, it wasn`t this bad in the jungle!"
The squad arrived on schedule at Andover and after a quick shower and food at Trenchant Lines military base the majority of the team had an early night, as legs and feet struggled to cope with the grueling punishment they have received so far.
