Today marks the start of week six of our race. We have now all spent 35 days at sea alone. I have been asked a lot if the time has gone quickly. Do I notice the passage of time? I think what people want to know really is am I marking off the days at sea, or the days till I get back home. But the reality is that time has taken on a completely different meaning to me which has become more pronounced in the last week, as I head East and the dawn becomes earlier each day.
