I saw it on FB. One legged is better than arms only!

I am very proud to be associated with you.
One legged, and half assed. A fine way to finish.

We're with you Dave, wishing we could take away some of the pain, but knowing you are darned stubborn and you will soon cross that finishing line.

So I am sitting in a restaurant with two of my children, setting an extremely bad example, by being glued to my electronic devices.

Re: The MOVEO 1000 km Project
He has only 8k left to do. He has racked up more meters today, on the very last day of this incredible feat, than he did during our tandem 24 WR. Hats off to you Dave.

Re: The MOVEO 1000 km Project
The stats on the spread sheet have gone a bit odd EDIT but I'm sure the PM4 is running the show

Re: The MOVEO 1000 km Project
Yes. 1229 followed by 2229 looks a bit odd. FaceBook is saying less than 5k to go, but I guess we need to wait to hear from the man himself.stumpy wrote:The stats on the spread sheet have gone a bit odd just hope the PM4 is counting down/ up
At this stage, it's just a matter of a few minutes one way or the other and hopefully he'll have enough time for a shower and a change of clothes before he has to head off for the airport.
Go Plummy, go!
