00:45 Unexpected stop! His right toe is hurting like crazy. they put a little bit of neoprene on his toe and after 2 minute he’s gone again.

01:00-02:00
01:10 he skipped the one hour break because of the early break in the last hour. so next stop will be at 2:00
01:50 he has reached 18 km! Getting ready for the break.

02:00-03:00
02:08 after 8 hours of swimming he’s at 18600 meters. That’s 372 laps! Projected end distance with this pace:55800 meters! He’s way above schedule, but he’s starting to get physical problems. During the break he said he could manage it, but he looked much more tired then the hour before.

03:05 After 9 hours he has done 20600 meters. Projected pace 54900 meters. Rest was one cycle longer, around 4,5 minutes. But he looks much better then an hour earlier. shortness of breath is gone, and the body doesn’t hurt that much anymore. For now!

06:10 we have to stop the live stream for around 10-20 minutes. The battery is getting too hot and can’t be recharged at the moment. so we let it cool for some time now.
