Things are running like clock-work. Bekkie Wright and Joe Poliquin have organized the schedule so well that we are hardly in the RV. Our time in between is near 20 minutes as opposed to a full 40 minutes.
Still plenty of hills--but now the temps are much higher. We are slowing down half-way in each split to drink fluids and also take shot blocks. We walk when we need to, and our support vans are always around to look after our welfare. Along the way, we get plenty of opportunities for photos and videos--so look for those at the Team POL site.
Plenty of civil war historical sites. Quaint streets. Tree-lined country roads. The smell of freshly planted wheat. Too much to take in, and certainly takes too much to describe in a blog. Just trust me when I say, you have to be there.
Rob A surprised us by running 3.5 miles at the end of the day. We each added 1 mile after, which certainly became the most enjoyable for me. That was my single 7-minute mile for this trip (and will not be repeated again).
The body's holding up well--a few aches and pains but still running!!!

Sounds like a great day Ed. I really missed not running with you guys today. I knew things would continue to run smoother as the team continued to find a rythm. I've enjoyed getting to know you and the rest of the gang in my week on the team.
Congrats on the 7 minute mile! Now bust out a few more of those and we'll all be really impressed. :)
See you soon!
Rob E.
