You eat some food from an aid station. It might have been a bad move, because you start to feel sick. |

You realize that you haven't seen a trail marker for a while. It takes some backtracking to find the corrct trail and get back on course. |

The sun gets really hot, making it hard to breathe, so your pace suffers. |

You hear the familiar sound of bagpipes on the wind, and round a corner to find a piper playing you on. You run past with a wave and a burst of speed to get away from the sound of a cat being strangled. |

You get the 'runs' and duck behind a rock for a bit. Other runners can be heard gagging as they run past your rock. |

Commentary
The lead runners are jockeying for position as they start the torture that in the climb up the Tip Track. With legs burning and hearts pounding, they will have to run to the top, and back down again. this can be as hard on the mind as it is on the legs.
With everyone having health damage, and the best part of 20kms still to go, this is where legends are made. Who can tough it out and take the lead going into the final stage of the race?
Check in tomorrow for the next post. The time has come for you to play your best card.
