First day after the return to the route where the legs fealt strong. Should soon begin to get back into normal distances instead of the short days. As I hope you can see from the pictures, also a visually very enjoyable stage - huge variation from the narrov mountain passes, sudden views over large horizons untill the road flattened out to a long straight 'arrow' of tarmac ! A few condors kept me company up a steep hill - should be in one of the pictures.

As the confidence in the run is returning I have put the scedule for the rest of South America below. It has some room for the "surprises" which as you have seen often happens when running across continents away from home so I hope it holds :-)


NB: The next 3-4days I will be running through fairly remote areas and tomorrow we will leave our base in Moquena (a charming city which both Pali and I have enjoyed !). So the next update probably will be in 4days time.
