Lucky Lucky Lucky and Sylvie too

March 28th, 2008 Posted in Breaking News

Team Lucky and stowaway Sylvie made it to the finish line and there were cheers and tears of accomplishment.  Team Lucky had their share of bad luck throughout the race and frankly I think they were a little surprised to find themselves at the finishline at all.  Mila said her feet were so bad she could barely walk and mid way between CP14 and CP15 the team was seriously contemplating how to quit the race.  Then at that same moment, the SOLEmobile arrived with race directors Karen and Paul, checking on teams and checking on the checkpoint flags and staff.  Mila said to the boys…what am I going to do?  what I am going to do?  My feet are in so much pain, I can’t possibly go on.  Then we saw Karen and Paul and they cheered us up and gave us a few painkillers to ease the pain.  “At that point I knew I could make it to the finish,” said Mila.  There would be no quitting on this Lucky team.  And here we are and we were happy to have Sylvie along with us.  Jeremy was fantastic with the navigation.  We are so happy to be here.

    Congratulations Johnny, Jeremy, Mila and Sylvie. Johnny-We miss you a lot and can’t wait to see you. Kiley and Cian have been asking for “Dada” every day. Kiley has been talking to a photo of you and kissing it nightly. Cian is walking (no, just kidding). Cian’s top two teeth are cutting through though. You are flying home right ;-)?

    We love you Johnny (AKA Dada)

    Brianne, Kiley and Cian
