I decided to line up for another go. Not much else happening here. Our team, Westrac is 8th, and my time today was 30 mins faster than I thought - much happier now! Food is going ok, I am a bit behind as I seem to be able to only eat before it gets really hot, then I am on fluids only. Should have got more flavours.
Blistered toes are not too bad, I am still draining them. I suspect it was salt buildup after only a basic rinse last night. They got a serious wash tonight.
Toilets are the classic trench warfare, but not a lot of flies, so pretty good. Cooking in the sun in cut down water bottles works a treat, but I am having a problem stomaching too many nuts.
We had a hot air balloon this morning, and wild camels on course, plus lots of small lizards.
Oh yes, todays temp revised to 46C at CP 3, more of the same tomorrow with more dunes.

Keep on keeping on.
Jacko,
This is my third attempt at responding to the blog- you need to get back here and give me some techie..
I went out in sympathy todfay and jogged Bronte beach in support of your effort.
You are aware that this little jaunt goes to put you in the officially loopy club as opposed to "a little odd"...Megan gets a free mention too for allowing it ...and poor Josh and his genetics now.
Keep it up, you know that pain doesn't last forever!! Amazing effort Stoney
I bet minus 46C is pretty tempting right now!
The hot air balloon must have been incredible. Great work so far; keep on rolling !
