Day 10
Daniel is going well although he's feeling tired at the moment...surprisingly enough. He started strongly this morning, has had a bit of a dip but has had a rest and some food and is on his way again. I noticed on some other racer's blogs that now that the heat is on the sleep is greatly reduced until they finish on Saturday/Sunday or Monday. Daniel is going to continue as usual tonight and tomorrow night, he wants to finish in good time but more importantly in good shape. He has just over 500 miles to go. The Appalacians are coming up tomorrow. One advantage, going through this tough section is that he has done most of it before when he cycled in an 8-person RAAM team in 2007.

Daniel,
Fantastic effort, keep it up you're almost there now.
You have now acquired "hero status - first class" amongst the Muscat Cycling Club! As my fellow MCC cyclists grumble about a little Arabian heat during our regular Friday morning outings I've been telling everyone about your feats. That seems to put our meer 100k in 43°C heat into perspective!

Just checked your tracker... I see you're coming up to Nutter Farm, just short of Ellenboro WV.
Well named, I feel!!!
Head down and own those hills!
Keep safe,
The Goodchildren.
You are beyond the Nutter Farm. But we already knew that...
Hang in there in the mountains!

Thinking of you from both Scotland and Nigeria...and totally in awe... keep it up you're doing amazingly.
