Over a week late !!

Ok so this is the post that was meant for last weekend... I was on duty with a real cool teacher, and on Sunday we went to a Fijian Catholic group's Christmas fun day..
When we got there, they were playin loads of sports games like touch and football etc, they also had party games for the smaller kids, and races... even an egg and spoon race !! It was sooo cool..
The weather wasnt great, but it held out... just ! It started rainin about 15 mins before we got in the taxi...
So that was saturday... Then sunday it poured down all morning, so we just went to the school gym and played indoor cricket and other random games in there, and then went to the computer lab with the kids for a while, they all love it... Computer nerds...
After lunch, the sun kinda came out, and then we went to the park for a little bit, stoppin off at macdonalds for afternoon tea...

Thats about it... Hmmm only a week and a bit left now...
Love you xxxxxx

Round the Bridges!

So on Sunday 15th November, me and my friend, Laura, did a 12km race called 'Round the Bridges'.
It was quite fun, which was a huge suprise... I walked most of it, but it was a powerwalk, so not just dawdling... Overall I reckon i ran about 5km of it... In little sections...
As i was running down the finishin straight, which was the main street in Hamilton, the commentator called out my name, and was like:
" This is Charli Brunning storming down the finishing straight right now, she is all the way from England. She must be listening to a good song !"
I was smiling as i crossed the finish line because as i ran over the line Frank Sinatra came on my iPod singing 'New York'... I was so happy, cuz this is the song that Laura and I had been singing the 'eventful' night before...
Anyway, so here is the link so you can all see my break down... http://results.nz.eventdirector.net/View.asp?EventID=3701&Bib=1400

It wasnt a great time, but I now have a time to beat, so that when i do the next one, i have something to go for....

Oh and any of you 'Ironmen/women' who might be reading this, dont laugh at my pained face !! It was hard for Tommy and Tabitha !! Haha
