The Dynamic Duo were the winning team at GI Jane on 28 February - proving their dynamism once more ! Not under too much duress to ditch their lipstick (although there was no way they were ditching their lycra! . . .that was safely hidden underneath the fatigues!), the Duo eagerly turned up to the Meningitis Research Foundation's first ever Northern Ireland GI Jane event in Castlewellan Forest Park.
The "ladies only" sponsored challenge event involved a special military style "warm up" (during which Andrea was literally floored by Jen's aggressive streak!!) and then participants had to rotate around 6 physical and mental challenge zones! Now, mental we don't have a problem with! LOL. 
Such a fantastic event - allowing girls to take part at a totally pedestrian pace (which was the majority), stopping numerous times for food and drink, and only a handful of girls racing it (yip, that was the Duo!). Give us war paint rather than lipstick any day! Fighting talk! And boy, did we talk throughout the whole thing...even at race pace!
