Day 8

The temperatures rose higher today but fortunately the humidity is still fairly low. The 10 day says that there will be t-storms and rain for 9 out of the next 10 days so a change is due any moment.

Rainald and Stutisheel were slowed yesterday through injury and the course was busy with visitors yesterday, Sunday.

I am still ahead of previous races but getting the mileage up to 111 per day is very difficult.

Knees have been bothering me over the last few days interspersed with sore shins. Madhupran is still roaring away with the lead but no-one escapes "issues".
