World Run I / ReportsGoto:
Distance today: 32.0 km (Accumulated: 23516.0 km) Country: USA 2005.07.18. [Green road sign on Hwy. 10 E.: "Prescott 3 miles", at intersection of Hwy. 10 & Hwy. 61] - [Ellsworth; green city sign on Hwy. 10: "Ellsworth"]. 32km, 3:04:33h. Excl. food, water, road-finding, toilet etc. stops Total 23475km. Start: 07:30am. Finish: 11:29pm. Time GMT - 7 hours +25c, almost clear and medium wind at start. 27c and same at finish. - A huge help to have a crew/team again!! I am sure that the 3 rest day in Hastings did a lot in getting me fresh, but have the positive support of a crew and not having to push the stroller make a big difference. It feels almost as if I had forgotten how joyful it can be to run - the last 2 months being more struggle than anything else. Hopefully there will be a chance to get help from teams on the last long stretch out to New York City; pushing the stroller there doesn?t seem very tempting or even doable at present. But as mentioned: today was enjoyable :-) We took time to look at the green farm fields and beautiful hilly landscape when I passed by at the water stations every 2-3 miles and in general had a pleasant day. Even the weather was much less humid than usual for the last weeks. At the finish in Ellsworth we found a nice motel - The David Motel - who was helpful in letting me use their internet to post the report. At present I don?t have signal for the mobile phone, so it might take a while before I can upload or send the next reports. - The next stages will be to: 19/7: Duran (on Highway 10). 20/7: Alma (on Highway 35). 21/7: Fountain City (Highway 35). 22/7: Trempleauteau (Highway 35). 23/7: La Crosse (Highway 35). |
