Today when we had our prestage meeting Theo and Dieneke said good bye. From today on Jenny, James and Italo did not have any crew anymore. Only Jenny has Anneke on her bike, but that helps only a little bit. At the course she will have support, but after both are without a car. Today’s stage was a long one. Luckily it was mainly downhill. At least it looked like at the map. The reality was different. You did not feel a lot from the downhill. Always there were little waves. As lower our altitude level went, as more turned the landscape. The trees turned back into bushes and it was getting meager. In addition it got warmer again. It is really amazing how fast landscape and temperatures could change. When we started you can see that all runners were faster today. Especially Italo and Bando speeded. If it makes sense it is another thing. Even Bando was running a long time just behind me and also in front of me at the beginning, he finished last. Second was again Patrick. Only Italo pushed Serge one place back. Most time Serge was second place. Laure prepared a portion of noodles when we had arrived. After I ate and had a small interview with Dave Patrick and Italo arrived. Just after that we left to our Motel. Today there was an accommodation at a gym, but without shower. Also tomorrow there should be camping. While we drove to the motel we could cheer some more runners. Also we can see how some fought against the sandstorm which came up. It remembered me to Trans-Europe-Footrace, when we had a small sandstorm in south of Italy.
