And just like that, everything changes. With no entry from @godofbit for this round, one of our best performing veterans is gone. That opens up the race to the other runners. So remember, never give up. It's never over until it's over.

Commentary
The runners look to be spread out, but there is actually only about 4 kilometers between first and last. In an ultra marathon that's nothing. We are into the heart of the race now and this is where some big moves can be made and some good ground covered. But watch out, there are still hills aplenty to cope with.
Again, sorry for the delay in getting this post up. I'll try to get the next one up later on today.
