Steve has written a long blog post here
https://sweatpledge.com/usersc/blog.php?id=97&blogpost=161

It covers his thoughts on his HAMR experiences, plans for the future, and a report of the Trans Atlantic Way.

It's very long. I've not got to the end yet.

Edit: My favourite from the chunk I just read:
The ferryman knew about the event. I asked for a cup of tea, thinking that there was a cafe on the ferry. I'm not sure that there was but the ferryman got me a cup of tea anyway. I'm not sure if that counted as outside help that would get me disqualified or not, so I'm not telling anyone about it.

Now he's doing this;

It's only just over 5 a minute for 24 hours! Pah! I could easily do that (for a maximum of one minute).

Good luck Idai!

One every 11.3 seconds. Easy.
how do you even start to train for this? The fatigue on your arms would be immense.
