Marathon of Britain - Race update 5

7:44am Monday - Dan checks in..

29 miles to do today - I've been told it's 5 big hills - though looking at the map I only saw two of them... but the climbing is going to be tough today... not exactly looking forward to that - but strangely quite excited by it.

Had a better nights sleep last night..obviously the tiredness kicked in after our first stage.. managed to see the scoreboard and establish that I was 15th yesterday - which I was pretty pleased with. Andy came in - in the lead in 2hours 25 minutes - which is just far too fast really :-)

MORE...

The rest of our tent.... Anke came in just under 3 hours.. and Rob and Phil came in aorund 20-30 mins after us... and Victoria and myself came in around 3:30 hours..

Hopefully the map reading will go well today.. just had breakfast - and to my joy that included bacon sandwiches.. a fantastic start to the day..

Missing Jack but hopefully I get to talk to him later on. and hopefully not while I'm climbing a big mountain... more updates during the day..
