DAY 66 (Saturday 24 September 2011)

Well it was difficult getting out of bed today, I am absolutely shattered.  I met with BK and Steve to bike down to the start point of the KATHMANDU MARATHON which didn’t take us long as it was at the stadium in town.  We got there and found our runners; we made our way to the start point waiting for the race to begin. 

Charlie was back at home, he was going to take pictures of our runners as they went by, at the bottom of our road, he managed to get a few of them

As I came past with Nicky, I stopped and asked Charlie for the camera so that I could get a picture of all our runners together at the end of the Marathon, however, as I had taken the camera before Maj Jim Thompson came past I was able to get a picture of him coming over the finish line inside the Athletic stadium in KATHMANDU.
