Instant puncture on the new tires Sarah bourght yesterday for her stroller upon the jogg to the start.

A sudden rise in temp. at midday and a bit of lack of water on the way to Karaman.

4 punctures en route'. Bringing Sarah nearly to end her journey.

Tiredness as the sun went down and the temp. again got into single digits while we ran in darkness searching for a place to stay.

- Yet she put in another remarkable effort and got to the finish, 62km down the road; dehydrated, fatigued, flat running stroller tires and no un-punctured tubes left. But w. a smile on her face after havinggiven all one more day !

For my part feeling allright. A flat on the stroller and a few visa applies and scedule adjustments to look at along w. a broken solarcell panel on the stage today - but thats to worry about tomorrow; now its time for Rest. Sweet rest :-)
