"Day 35 - start of the day after a bad sleep"
"I love being near a #commast. Phone calls back to the UK made. I'm happy."
"Wind picking up nicely. I'll take this over heat and flies for now."
"Thank you to my headline sponsor @drivebenfield for great support. Couldn't do it without them. #spon"
"RV broken down again. It's 2 miles back. Looks like I'm on my own for now."
"Not many people wave back in their passing cars round here. #Penong"
"RV has been fixed. Good job we are close to civilisation. Of sorts."
"Determined to leave the #nullarbor tomorrow. It's a brutal part of the world to run but very beautiful all the same."
"Just spoken to a German cyclist on his way to #calgoorlie."
"I can hear a mechanical sound in the field next to me. It seems very alien to my ears."
"There is a very small and exclusive community of people crossing the #nullarbor by various means."
"The ones I've met have very similar personality traits. They are articulate, determined, positive and friendly people. #nullarbor"
"It's too soon but I'm sure I'll look back on the #nullarbor as I do the #Mojave desert, #deathvalley, #rocky mountains or the #appalachians"
"I think I know how @mrmarkbeaumont must have felt when meeting fellow long distance travellers. #nullarbor"

We hope to share some pictures of this soon!

"#ceduna #denialbay #eyrehighway #nullarbor"
"Going to do another 7 miles to #ceduna today and stop at 21. @Donna__Houghton has arranged a nice RV camp for us. Be rude not to use it."
"Enjoying the last few miles of the #nullarbor. #ceduna is just over an hour away. #eyrehighway"
"I'll be double checking the remaining miles this afternoon and applying a couple of @carltonf46 suggestions."
"I have a feeling that I'll be at the halfway point, in terms of distance, tomorrow. More news later."

Day 36 - End Of The Nullarbor by rungeordierun
"The remaining miles of #rgrdownunder with @drivebenfield."
"The required daily run rate to get to #bondi on time is now 36.9. So far I've averaged 33.67 miles per day."
"I expect the average rate to increase due to a) being 16 kg lighter than at the start. b) The #nullarbor is behind me now......
..c) the team increases to 3 on Friday. d) More water and better quality food is readily available going forward.....
... e) @Donna__Houghton gets here next week!"
"Lights out time. Bed an hour earlier due to time zone change. Tomorrow's target is 40 miles. Time to get some miles in credit. #believe"
As you can tell by Mark's tweets, and perhaps if you heard the interview with Gary and Lisa this morning, you will notice a huge boost of positivity. This is as a result of a number of factors; the massive mileage milestone, contact with the outside world and progress with the healing feet. Carlton is doing a great job reviewing the route and generally looking after Mark so all is well. David and Ian start their journey from the UK tomorrow and will land in Adelaide late Friday evening. Saturday should see the support team in full force and as a result hopefully some big miles achieved.
