Near the end

We caught some sleep last night, so I don't really know what's going on !

Alexandre, the race director was on the phone to Geoff Hunt last night telling him that 'Nike are losing' (he's prone to exaggeration) and 'Orion are way behind' (more exaggeration).

That was before the last two legs, both were pretty tired, and having to miss CPs to keep on time. Anna's feet are pretty sore, Sonja tried to get some Paracetemol out of the red cross guys at TA16, he looked at her feet and said it wouldn't help, and wouldn't give her any. Genius. Anna's one tough girl.

Nga Rakau have had the CPs for Stage 3 corrected on the leaderboard, so are back in 33rd, hope Neil's navigation brain is still working for the last two legs which supposedly included tricky navigation.

  1. Thanks Annie ... you've been a star with your reports all through this long and complex race! Glad to hear that you finally got yourself some decent sleep :o)

    Please pass on big congratulations to both teams and support crews when they get to the finish line - it's been an epic effort and you/they have all done so well!

    Cheers
