The team have put in a huge effort and past the last checkpoint at mile 244 and Charlie and Sophie have just seen them at mile 252, Taylors Bridge - the last public access point. The team now just have to cross the bay to reach the finish line, however it's now a nail biting race against time for the Camels to cross the finish line before the 100 hour mark, in about 6 hours time.
The strong winds are making the bay difficult to cross and previous teams have taken anywhere between 3 - 13 hours and the teams have 6 hours left to do it in. There are three teams paddling with the Camels together through the bay, all desperate to finish before the time deadline. One of the teams has crossed the bay many times, which is fantastic for the boys and they are all motivating each other and pushing each other faster and faster.
It's going to come down to the wire, so keep your fingers, toes and everything crossed, however regardless JM, James, Simon, Sophie and Charlie have all done the most amazing job and are a true inspiration to the rest of us!
Come on Camels, everyone is rooting for you!
