“It is such a long race, but whey you are nearing the finish you start to savor every moment because you know it is coming to an end.” After 42 days of running Sarah has completed 2100 miles.

There is a fresh breeze drifting coolly across the course from the West. The sun is rising up full and bright and promising, that at least for today, it will not burn and abuse the 12 runners who have lived under its hot gaze for so many days.
