The Mark Webber Challenge 2012 is over.
Still on a cloud since crossing the finish line, it is hard to come down, clean and pack everything within a few hours before the evening celebration and a 10am flight the next day. The evening celebration at the Henry Jones Hotel is just fantastic. Great to chill with everyone, watch the pictures of the event, the promotional videos and relax and chat with everyone and get to know them a little bit more. In hindsight, I did not eat or drink much during the event as I was too busy talking with people.
After a speech from Mark Webber and the race directors, it is time to hand out the trophies to the winning teams.
The first team called was the third team in the Enthusiast category, and what a pleasure to hear our team name: Rexona “No Quit”! We all get these beautiful awards made in Tasmanian wood and are congratulated by Mark Webber who also said a few words in French for Eric and I.
What a fabulous race. What a fabulous place. We had such an amazing time in Tasmania and enjoyed every single moment of it. Looking back, it was such a unique and magical opportunity to race through the most beautiful and wild parts of Tasmania.
We felt privileged to do that and race among the who’s who of sport athletes and adventure race world champions. We lived up to our team name, gave everything we got and I want to acknowledge Glenn and Eric for being amazing team mates. Thanks to Rexona for sponsoring us to do the Mark Webber Challenge 2012. We are definitely keen to do another podium next year and show some more No Quit attitude!

As Eric and Glenn put it: “this week is the highlight of my year”, “the Mark Webber Challenge was just an amazing experience”.
