3rd place: Radosław (Radek) Gołębiewski (Poland, 47): 4d 05 h 57 min.


American Chris Mehlman has still 10 miles to go for the 4th place. So far around 180 racers of 250 are still in the race. Those who reached the finish line described the conditions as "extreme" because of a massive headwind (caused by a cyclone) and sandstorm. It was freezing cold at nights and scorching hot during the daytime.

We are very proud of Radek's feat! You see, nobody of you personally knows Tadej or another World Tour top racer but many of us know Radek a.k.a. 'Radzilla' :) Also, think of the age of him!
