10:41 am
you're coming back into the wind and you're coming back into the wind and you feel any exposed skin is starting to toughen to the temperature. when people were walking past me, it was demoralising, because i was giving every ounce of physical energy and physical force and strength i think i had, but that was always going to be the case, i knew that for me the challenge would be a lot different to anybody else. we have darren edwards coming into the finish _ have darren edwards coming into the finish after _ have darren edwards coming into the finish after his first marathon. we finished finish after his first marathon. finished the finish after his first marathon. - finished the marathon, i finished finish after his first marathon. - finished the marathon, ifinished in five hours 50 and i was exhausted. maybe my congratulations, darren. what it was only when you're on the plane in the air moving back to cape town that it was the realisation that this was not a one—off. we were about to find ourselves back out on the cape town promenade lined up ready to do marathon number two on day two. making it today to his

10:43 am
private charter plane. i've never been on a charter plane in my life. in my head i was thinking of something a bit g5 like or billionaire like, it wasn't, just pretty much an old easyjet plane that had been transformed into a charter plane. sleeping was difficult, near impossible at times. the only thing on your side with the fact that you were exhausted. it's pretty much the case, as soon as you lounge are getting the baggage off, from landing to start in the marathon we had two hours, finishing the marathon to getting back on the plane we had three hours. we are going to do by four marathon number four. we will be in dubai for less then 1k hours. madrid was day five.
