Day 23 - Monday 7th July 2003

Namitabha Arsic and Andreas Puntigam scoffed at the heat and ran 65.8560 and 64.7584 miles, respectively, to carve up the rest of the field. Trishul Cherns reached 1300 miles for the third time (22+16:31:47). Later in the evening stiff breezes snuck into the area and cooled things down a little, paving the way for the  athletes to get their miles.
