Car working again :-)
- It seems to be an endless battle w logistics and (ofcourse ?) I have days where its hard to motivate myself to keep the run going as I can so far count 3 day in5 weeks where there hasnt been other challenges than to enjoy the Run; and that I did: Enjoyed the run through stunning nature - am running in a part ofthe Great Rift Valley system wich streatches across East Africa and is home to a rich nature-life.

When I nearly was prepared to let ''enough be enough'', yesterday or the day before, loosing count of the number of non-running problems; my Girlfriend picked me & the run up in the best way imaginable :-) Even over a fragile phoneconnection, across deserts and mountains from Khartoum in Sudan, she lifted the Spirit towards not only batteling on - but falling asleep w. a Smile looking once again forward to the next days run and experienses !!

..I may be unlucky w. the endless amounts of probs. But :-) Im Lucky to have gotten this Dream team' of Line, Phil (who takes care of the huge logistics work) and Kasper (my littlesisters husband who is a wizzard'not only as webmaster but also in all sorts of tecknical inventions in both wr1 and wr2)
T-H-A-N-K-S FOR BEEING WITH ME AND KEEPING THE RUN GOING :-)
