It was #WorldSleepDay yesterday. Slept rather well during the race - when conditions allowed. Afterwards the quality of sleep has been bad but slowly improving. Body need's its time to recover. No matter if the pillow is soft. 😴⛵️#vahvaamyötätuulta @VendeeGlobeENG #VG2020 pic.twitter.com/VJbZdRdr22
