The team made a fantastic effort paddling through the monday night and overtaking all teams infront of them. Taking back the lead and hurrily jumped on their mountainbikes to reach the Midway camp just after dusk. The team was looking really good, they had no sleepmonsters and were talking rapidly giving out instructions and working as a team in transition. Mattias said that they made som minor mistakes on the bikes, because of all the trails everywhere and old maps. A local said that there is new trails every 6 months. A nice shower and a meal later, they could sleep for almost 4 hrs giving them a fresh new start 03.30 local time. On the tracking we can see that THS is making good progress and going fast.
We will go out and meet the team at the canyon abseil later.
