With a time deadline on stage 4 of 32 hours, today represented a rest day for all of us that managed to make it back overnight (or before)
Having self-treated every blister so far, I was today forced to visit the travelling foot doctors ‘Doc Trotters’ after my feet crossed the cusp of what can be considered a manageable level of distortion or disgusting. Where I was then punctured, and then injected with iodine. And I would like to apologise again, in writing, to all those within earshot when it was delivered. I didn’t even know I knew a lot of those words.
Temperatures again hit extremes today, to the point where the sand became too hot to walk on and the majority of the day was spent in the relative cool of our tent trading life stories, injury woes and isotonic gels.
