Day 4 consisted of 2 back to back marathons for a total of 54 miles. Competitors had 2 full days to complete this stage but not Tim, he ran all night and finished in just under 22 hours at around 7 this morning. This gave him the luxury of lounging around all day licking his wounds. Below is his latest message.
i felt your hands lifting the pack when i needed it last night. liz get some rest for you must be tired from pushing me up so many dunes. the second 26 miles was just endless dunes. an emptier pack just means you can carry more water so no less weight. resting all day! finished at 7 am after 22 hour push. the dunes are like talcum powder croc scale 9. love to all and thanks for the emails they give us all inspiration. love you melinda tim, elissa and friends thought about all of you last night more than once.#
cheers and love tim.
going slow tomorrow.
