Day 3 Stage 3


Another excellent performance from Paul on Tuesday, 25.1m in 5hrs 48mins, moving him up to 148th place, and 11th British person home. The person he has leapfrogged is Sharon Gayter, so now Paul is the 'first British woman'. When Paul started to run races, especially local ones, his target was always to beat the first woman - a realistic but challenging target, given the fantastic quality of female runners out there. So the competitive side of him (I know, you'll all be suprised by this) will be quite satisfied. Probably the boost he needs before he tackles the 46.8m 'long day' on Wednesday.

We've got everything crossed - again. There are some fantastic photos on the darbaroud website, well worth a visit. Here's a taster.
