... being a pain. We took pictures of them in their lovely pink and yellow ponchos and they did of us. The next few hours continued pretty much the same with the stop points being at 1.5km, 2.2km and 3.25km. It became quite amusing as the Canadian girls were obviously going at pretty much the same pace as us just slightly ahead of us, so when they stopped at the next stop we passed them and then they passed us at the one after and so on.
