Battle Mountain - Day 3 - Morning runs

We got up early this morning to be in time for Thomas' speed run. The temperature was low this morning and the wind was stronger than usual. The run went without any problems. Even though there was a strong head wind, Thomas could build up his run nicely. He had forgotten to put his heart rate monitor belt on, so it was a bit tricky to go flat out at the right moment. It should therefore be possible to reach higher speeds than the 71.44 mph he achieved this morning.
