Back hurts: flat needs hoovering: am utterly exhausted. But ... but! I really had to force the last 50 words or so, but it seemed daft to stop just before the milestone ...

So are you going to push on at this rate and write 100000 words in a month if the book demands it? Then you could get 2 NaNo cirtificates!

given that this is a first draft, without all the description, obfuscation etc that will appear if / when I polish it, the notion of 100K is a bit scary! Not sure how much plot is left, but probably more than 10 chapters' worth ... (my chapters being scenes, really, averaging 1000 words)
