Well, hopefully this will be my last full day of the race. Although, at this pace I am beginning to have doubts!!!!
The last 24 hours have been SO SLOW, in little or no wind all the time.
It is really tiring as the wind is changing all the time and I have to spend all my time trimming and changing everything to match the wind. It is SO frustrating to be so near yet so far, and also knowing that if you get stuck a little worse off than the others you could loose 3 places in no time!
So that is why I am at 200 % to try and keep this 5th place. And keep my nerves!
The weather is beautiful, however, with a lovely sunset last night and an amazing starry night. Although it is FREEZING cold. My nose is frozen! I have been using the little hand-warmers - in my gloves, in my boots, in my pants... at one point I nearly got the duck-tape out to try sticking one on my nose!!
Keep whistling for the wind!!!!!
