Race Day 6 - Marathon Day
Distance: 42.2km
Time : 6 hr 38
Water : 18 litres
Temperature : 46.7ºC
I would never have believed it but we are fresh and raring to go today.
Albiet very well drugged and taped.
This leg we will run as we have trained. 5/1 is the plan.
5 minutes run/1 minute yomp.
Gav, my train driver, deserves a run.
His strength, held in check all week to keep my pace, deserves showing today.
I will follow faithfully whatever pace he sets.
Go, go honey. It’s only a marathon, after all.
From the bouncing, rocking start again we fly past 115, 116, 117 .. oh la la!
The entire field seems energized today.
Yesterday was hump day .. today is just for fun!
Days highlight?
An evening of Parisian opera.
Snuggling on our roll mats.
Floating, relaxed, in a soothing, classical sea of sound.
Immersed in the brilliantly star strewn balmy night.
Heaven, heaven, heaven.
