We all had an early start today so we could complete our running before our scheduled school visit. The landscape now is dotted with termite hills and since yesterday we have been seeing baobab trees along our route.
The team continued their run along the Great Northern Highway.
The entire team covered 215km today to Fitzroy Crossing, where they visited Fitzroy Valley District High School.
Today we fought against headwinds.
This is what the girls' team looks like as they pass us to reach their starting point of run.
Despite the easterly wind, in the Lion team each runner completed two 7km sections today. Totaling 72km.
As The Peace Run supporters on the side of the road, Western Australia's iconic boab trees greeted us.
These trees are truly unique and inspiring.
We are so happy to have the ever cheerful and skillful Abhinandan with us now.
Team hides from the schoolchildren and prepares for a ceremony at Fitzroy Valley District High School.
We arrived at Fitzroy District High School and were welcomed by the deputy principal, David Wheatfill who led us to a group of students who were enthusiastic to hear about the Peace Run.
We had the whole team so the country guessing game was a challenge, but these students were up to it and guessed them all.
We all enjoyed feeling peace in our hearts together.
The girls can't believe we ran 215km today!
After our presentation everyone had their special moment to hold the torch and then run with us.
"Team, today's work is done, please sit in the vans and go to rest at Fitzroy River Lodge!" says team captain Stacey.
