I kid you not - we're staying at the Hassle Sporthall tonight. But it does have hot showers and plenty of space - a guarantee of several stars in the Trans Europe rating scheme.
Well, we ran - or in some cases walked and hobbled - 105 miles this weekend. Today alone we ran more than two marathons. The effects are beginning to show. At least 5 of the top 10 are nursing bad knee or shin problems. Back in the peleton (I'm 35th at this point), there's a lot of fatigue, as each "long" day takes an interminable time to complete. Today, for example, I was running for 11 hours 15 minutes. That leaves little time for recovery, before things get underway again tomorrow.
Today's health report: sciatica better; feet OK; achilles tendons sore for the first time; quads and back very tired; very congested with cold symptoms. So good for another 43 miles tomorrow.
