Over half way through!

Just a quick update here as I'm about to head to bed.

Great 3 days, its an amazing place. Day 1 was really tough with high winds and snow, almost had all my kit on between check points 2 and 3. Sled held up well and great heated tents for the night.

Day 2 started slowly, my pole came clean away from my pulk at the start line, took 25 mins to fix then back on track. A fantastic day with no wind and clear skys.

Day 3. Had a great race today, upped the pace and enjoyed it. Will write loads more and load up pics and video after the race.

  2. Good to hear you are enjoying it Chris.

    Heated tents?! We clearly did not train properly in the Cairngorms.

    Seen any Longhorns yet?

    Keep it up mate and get those pics uploaded.
