We started quite early – alarm at 5.30 and hiked when it was still cool. I felt sick again today. I guess my body is inflamed from all the processed food I am eating. I have a bump under my right food which is worrying me. It’s like a long worm under my skin. A deep blister?It hurts. We didn’t stop all day except at Mike’s to get water.

I slept really great. It was a wonderful day – hiked with fish head, Jess and Kate, made it 13 miles and camped in the most epic spot on a mountain at 1500m. It was exhausting but I feel strong on the uphills. Really glad Kate is joining and made it to the camp side.
