I contemplated a run like this in my younger days but I don’t think I could do it now—Maybe two days for me. Awesome!

Thanks! I was so happy to see my Dad-- you may not have heard it in my voice. But with Covid I hardly get to hang out with him and I really miss him. Getting to do this with him and having him there at the end was perfect. Thanks for watching!

Super story. Made me think of my crazy running son. This is his kind of fun, a couple years ago he did the rim to rim to rim in the Grand Canyon. I’m sending him this YouTube link, he and his Duluth friends might really like this idea.
