A long stage into Ankara; approx. last 30km in the suburbs towards the center. There was a considerable difference in pace as Sarah has been struggeling a bit lately, and I (temporarely ?) am getting stronger/more settled in the run. We will use tomorrow to have a little jog in Ankara and replentish supplies as well as look at logistics.

On our way towards Ankara we met two walkers, Caroline (Canada) and Mathieu (France)
who are walking around the world. 4years !! What patience :-))
They are a 6person group who started out from France 8months ago and walk in teams of 2, where the teammates changes when the teams meet up in the big cities - great system ! Bonne chance a vous tout :-)
