Pieta and Nicole are competing today in the Wings For Life World Run in Melbourne. This event is being held simultaneously world wide, so the Melbourne time is rather late, a 9:00pm start. The race in Melbourne heads south-east around the bay and has no finish line. Instead, the runners are followed by a "catcher car", which takes off 30 minutes after the start at 15km/h and steadily increases its speed until the last runner has been caught. Last year’s global champion, Lemawork Ketema, was caught after more than 5 hours at a distance of 78 km.


Good luck ladies, run faster run further!
