Oops. You're right. Them Usanians don't do kms do they. Earlier post now edited for km/miles conversion.

sorry to point out that he does between 5 and 6 times the distance.. phenominal athlete indeed!

Which self-evidently I aren't.

Seems he's having some motivation issues at the moment

He hasn't had many of his planned rest days so a later start for once is understandable. He was still out before midday local time though, so plenty of time to do 100+ miles if he wishes.

His mileages seem to go down when he's riding locally. Maybe he needs to move away from home to regain his motivation.

His speed was steady but there's a big step in his HR chart.  Wind as well as the rain?

Kurt seems to be going through it at the moment.

Lack of motivation and crashes and now food poisoning or flu.

Trying to find a saline IV? That doesn't sound good. Poor chap. A day or two out to get over it maybe?

Oh this is not good news.

Kurt has put in an impressive amount of effort.  Healing vibes, hope you are fixed up and back at it soon. 

Over the course of a year I guess we have to expect it likely that all participants of the 1YTT will succumb to issues at times.

Does not play well with others

Certainly sounds like he celebrated his birthday at the wrong restaurant. He managed 1.1 miles though. Hopefully he will recover quickly and crack on.

20.5 km yesterday :(  And I doubt the "rest" will be doing him much good either.

From his fb page: "Kurt's been in bed most of the day with a fever. Tries to get up and move, but then he's back in bed (or in the bathroom). Hoping the fever breaks and his gut calms down so he can ride tomorrow. Energy would be especially good too. "

Poor fellow, sounds nasty
