The numbers
Everything measured from his own GPS trail, snapped onto the planned route.
Put another way
What he has covered, what is still in front, and how both compare with a normal thru-hike of the same trail.
Ground gained
His actual line against the two pace-setters, and where the models have him finishing.
Where he is
Orange is covered ground; the pale line is what's left.
What's still to climb
The Alps and Pyrenees are still ahead.
Day by day
Distance covered each calendar day, and the metres climbed doing it.
Pace, rolling
Four-hour rolling pace in minutes per kilometre, against his running pace so far. Faster is higher; the line breaks where he stopped.
Rest & the long hours
Each row is one day on the same 24-hour scale. Solid is moving, hatched is stopped, and the gap at the end of the last row is the part of today still to come. The ratio is what wins or loses a record like this.
How the call is made
Three independent estimates, each finishing him at a different hour. The terrain-adjusted one leads the page, because this course is decided by its climbing. The range up top is simply the fastest and slowest of the three.
