Home Stretch!

We are in our final week of this adventure and less than 500 miles from the Atlantic coast. I actually think we will make it! It all seemed so unreal and nearly impossible when we started but a short month and half later here we are!

Wow, what a week the last one was! So many great moments and memories!
-completed my longest ride ever, 121 miles into Columbus, OH!
-spent a day talking about nutrition to a lot of brilliant Columbus high schoolers
- Also spent an evening in Athens, OH lecturing and talking with fellow osteopathic students from Ohio University Medical School
-dove into the Columbus culture, experiencing all the great things about Columbus from the food, to music, to education, and lifestyle
-attended OSU's graduation and heard from President Obama
-Saw my 1st 3D IMAX combo movie which was ironman, which was a great movie
-took a quick trip back home to close on Katie and I's first house!
-getting rained/stormed out of riding for only the second time this whole trip but making the best if it by visiting some caves in Southwest Ohio
-along with tons of odds and ends; Costco run for 17 people, having a Chicago style hot dog in Chicago, more flat tires, and even more rain!!!!

So again we have crossed even more state lines, rivers, and mountain ranges and are quickly approaching our destination. I am hoping for the weather to corporate with our conclusion in order to fully take in our surrounding and end with positive attitudes all around.

Thanks again for reading looking forward to seeing many of you back home soon!
