It wasn’t a great day for the late risers amongst us today.

A 4.45am wake-up call saw us all jumping in our team buses and heading down to Noosa Beach.

Despite plenty of wishful thinking by the boys, we hit the beach to find it would not be a leisurely morning swim.

Instead we were faced with the guys from Queensland’s Special Emergency Response Team (SERT).  We knew then that it was going to be a tough session. They put us through our paces on the sand and in the water.

Part of the session included being blindfolded and forced to dig in the sand for two sets of car keys. It was like finding a needle in a haystack, and doing it in the middle of the night! Once we had the keys we were split into two teams and had to push two cars a couple of kilometres down the beach.

It was a gruelling 4 hour session and it was as mentally draining as it was physically. We were forced to really think about how we work together and by the end of the session you could see how much better we were working as a unit.

Once that was over it was straight to the lunch buffet. This is no doubt where I did some of my best work.

After lunch we received a text saying “we live in a bubble in Brissy, time to play in one.”

Turns out the next item on the agenda was Bubble Soccer. It made for a quite a funny afternoon, check out the video on twitter to see a couple of the guys getting bowled over!

Blue team took out the victory and Le Lork, or Dayne Zorko as you may know, dominated with 8 goals!

Now it’s off to dinner where I am sure I will once again be at my very best!

Cheers
