I have received many twitterings from Dan this morning and even managed to get through to him on his phone as they reach an area with better mobile reception. He told me that Sandip has had to drop out and has headed home.
Anyway as the twitters are not appearing properly on this site, I’ll copy and paste them……
- Around half way though day three it started to get very hard. I have rather large blisters and what feels like highly strung wire instea …12.32 from txt
- This is twice as hard as i thought it was going to be, so i think everyone should donate twice the money as well. 12.30 from txt
- We’ve lost sandip, he decided that he’d rather sleep at home than with nine other men in a boiling hot bunkbarn. 12.28 from txt
- Sorry about the lack of updates, i haven’t had a mobile signal for the past couple of days. 12.20 from txt

Seriously, I’ve just been to the shop and I’m knackered.

I bet Sandip’s got blisters in his nostrals. I think the fact that Dan sweats the most will protect him.

Remember the book, Into the Wild? In the guy’s journal he first writes the long flowing entries about the beautiful things he’s seeing and his deep thoughts about life. In the end he writes three or four word choppy phrases all with a singular focus–Must Find Food.
I’m picturing that now as Dan and his Loons plug further and further along–…Must Stop Walking….Just Lost Foot…Need Motrin…Send Help!…
Don’t give up Dan!
They’re done with the hard part, the big hill, now they just need to wrap it up. I think they can do it.
Go, Dan, Go!
Maybe Dan’s sweat helps him glide easily down the trails.

” I’m going to get up early and set off before the others tomorrow in an effort not to slow them down”
Oates said something very similar the day before he told Captain Scott “I’m going out now, I may be gone sometime…”

Well at least the weather’s been lovely – could have been worse!
Shame Dan didn’t hang corks from his hat – would have kept the midgies away.

Hang on in there – am keeping everything crossed for you and fingers crossed it will cool down a bit too weatherwise. Walking in this heat can’t be pleasant.
I can’t bear to look! Did they make it?
