John’s clearly struggling a bit with his nutrition but nevertheless he’s relentlessly moving up the Cross Fell climb - this is an #epic dot watching #ultrarunning extravaganza @pennine_way #GoJohnGo #JKPWFKT https://t.co/y8I2WiC4yX
In Middleton, John looked and felt unwell. He slept for 40 minutes, ate barely anything & set off feeling no better than when he had arrived. He has just been through Dufton looking a little better and he managed to eat more.😃
This guy is made of very strong stuff 💪🏻
