Smelling the ocean air, Peers One had a massive day with 126.14 miles to get within four miles of Eli’s P.R. Ice. The heat is on The Ice with only 208 miles to the finish. They were led on the day by Wayne McComb with a big 28.34 miles. Steve Durbin added a hefty marathon of his own miles, as team captain Rich Peers covered 23.90 miles.

It’s going to be an exciting finish. Can the tired legs of P-1 find enough miles in them quick enough to catch Eli’s and get to the pier before them? We are going to find out.
