_andy Aug 2020 7:49pm, 15 Aug 2020 10,891 posts	Quote Pin _andy Almost at Thrumster, just south of Wick. Google maps has that as 22 miles - and says 7 hours at walking pace (I guess it uses 3mph). Dan is going faster than that at the moment and there's no way he'll stop if it's physically possible to continue. Nothing even close to this, but when my legs went in the Lakeland 100, the last 23 miles took me 11 hours with no running possible at all. Exciting stuff, let's hope for a good finish for Dan!

_andy Aug 2020 8:08pm, 15 Aug 2020 10,892 posts	Quote Pin _andy Those sort of finger and thumb measurements are often the best! Speaking of which, mine are all crossed. Even spending a few miles on the road with Dan earlier this week has added a bit of connectedness that makes it all the more real For future reference this evening - Wick to Jo'G is 16.7 miles Reiss to Jo'G is 13.5 miles Keiss to Jo'G is 9.0 miles Freswick to Jo'G is 4.3 miles That's including the extra half mile to Jo'G harbour - since that's where all the start/finish photos are taken (gotta love Street View for this sort of thing)
