Hope you get lots of rest tonight and feel great tomorrow. Will be rooting you on and trying to keep up with your progress. Hope all things considered you have a good day and supersede your targets, but if not, we're still super proud of you (its pretty extreme stuff you're doing). Good luck to Sharon too in her role and all the pirates who are there. Big cheers from Oz! Go David! Awesome blog as usual.

It's lovely and blue, but it's also blowing close to gale force winds and nobody is out swimming. This time yesterday there were quite a few groups of people in the water.
