We started the morning by hiring a 4WD and picking up as many competitors that we could fit in, we then headed off to Metamorphica for weigh-ins. After a warm up and introduction to the rules, our kids performed as they always do, leading the way in their performance and humble attitudes. If you have a spare few minutes take a look at the video below.
