Strong finish for Mike - Penrith Complete

Well, Mike did a great job coming down into Penrith and it is testament to his athletic ability to cover the 62.2 miles (that's over 100km) today in 15hrs 32mins. His bodies ability to cope with the daily fatigue of the race is fascinating to watch and how he now rests and recovers for tomorrow is imperative for his continued progress to Lands End.

We will be back out on the route early as he starts at 6am to get maximum usage of the daylight and hopefully when you are not engrossed in the wedding you'll be back to catch up on his progress towards Garstang...

AND THE DREADED CLIMB AT SHAP...
