Today started under scorching sun. This time, the team slapped on the sun cream. We made good progress between Strathy and Durness, going via Tongue. The scenery was once again stunning, and we picked a very small café for a quick lunch. Angus, who had been hard at “work”, missed the café and carried on. The Freelander was sent ahead to find Angus! He had already covered over 5 miles, and we had lunch by the roadside after the team had caught up. After arriving in Durness, we decided to do a further 20 miles. The weather was just exceptional and we didn't want to start the next day with a 1000ft climb. As a consequence, we ended up climbing 5000ft in the day.
