[HAMR] 4th November - Teethgrinder Day 308/89
« on: 04 November, 2015, 09:39:47 am »
Sitting on a Maltese Ferry (!) waiting to see if Steve has recovered from yesterday's ailments, see what progress for the day he has made and whether he will get above the TG WR threshold today?


Allez Steve!!

He fired up at 9.52. I think this will be a tough day, as it's wet and cold.

Good luck Steve!

Wowbagger has Steve "firing up" at 09:52 but Ivans tracker shows a start of 11:28. Another case of trackers needing to be cross checked at the end of the day? Or something else?

He's done 122 miles at the time of this post.  I'd be surprised if he'd done that from half past eleven.
Admission.  I'm actually not that fussed about cake.

Seems a bit slow tonight.  I hope the tummy  troubles aren't causing problems.

Steve seemed to be going a bit slower than recently all day,   I'm hoping it's tracker artifacts, but still worry about what else it could be, especially considering the stomach issues.

Fingers crossed!

Slower and perhaps with longer stops,  but 206.2 nevertheless.

Keep on grinding, Steve!
