Anxious to hear about Stage 5, sounds like there were some additional challenges. You're almost done and I know you can finish strong. Pictures are amazing can't wait to hear all about it! Stay strong til the finish! Love you much!

Today was a mix of good and bad. Total distance for the day was right around 23 miles.

"found out a dog that weighs about 6 pounds ran the entire stage and placed 5th overall…" ...that sounds about right. You are in China, right? That dog is running for it's life.

I've read the comments about how difficult the terrain was yesterday bringing tears to my eyes when Cynthia Fish stated "that anything difficult must be beautiful and that was beautiful" Hang in there and persevere ! I know you can do it! What an amazing journey you have been blessed to take. Love you much!
