I'm tucked up in bed in my hotel room because I've got a stinking cold, but I'm hoping to be feeling a lot better by tomorrow and should be on site in the Box Hill checkpoint from mid morning tomorrow to give proper updates.
StuH Nov 2024 7:10pm, 21 Nov 2024 5,004 posts	0 StuH Probably counting from Mickleham as that is the start point for all the regular distances. So is the lap counter half a lap ahead or behind?
Raemondo Nov 2024 8:13pm, 21 Nov 2024 12,269 posts	0 Raemondo Well, it went back to zero for a while and now it's showing 1 again when the distance is showing just over 20 miles... So I'm not sure what's going on with it 😂
StuH Nov 2024 7:42am, 22 Nov 2024 5,005 posts	0 StuH Looks like Sam has just completed lap 6. Tracker showing him at Box Hill along with Dave who has completed 5. Some there have done 3 so quite a spread already. Dave did upload a 50 mile run earlier, hopefully that's a partial recording and he's having a rest, no one seems to be a DNF yet.
