62 Miles left to go!

He's feelin' fine!


After warming up a bit, Danno ran the last five miles to the support stop with no problem at all. It's getting dark in New England, so he and Amelia have already donned their headlights.

Man alive! Did he get cybernetic implants while he was resting!? This is great news, so far. Check back in a couple of hours, as it looks as though he'll be running well into the night.

The crew is set up at the next support stop which is wonderfully coincidental and accurate, considering the circumstances. They're in the parking lot of a beautiful picturesque chapel called "Our Lady of Hope".



Elizabeth and I were also doing some advanced calculus in our heads, and by the time Danno hits this church, his distance will be equivalent to a quintuple marathon! Yes. 5 of them. 5 times 26.22 miles is 131.1. Danno hits 135 next.

There are some, myself included, that think ONE marathon is a feat of human endurance.

Pheidippides, the greek messenger, would be proud.
