We made it to Day 9! Jason started the day by clipping off about 4 miles without a problem. Not long after we started we crossed the Missouri-Arkansas border! We're in Razorback country now!
Today, Jason is joined by his younger brother, Jon (pictured with Jason at the border marker). Jon is riding along on his bike and giving Jason some much needed company on these lonely country roads.
We not only hit the border, but we also crossed the 300 mile mark!! We're on the home stretch :)
Speaking of milestones, we are $61 dollars away from raising $6,000 for Girls on the Run! Thank you to everyone who is helping to provide opportunities for young girls. Who wants to be the one to put us over $6,000????
UMSL Commencement Speaker 2008 final words of wisdom to the graduates:
ReplyDelete. Do More Than Is Asked Of You
. If You Don't Ask - The Answer Is No
Jason you have done more than your body ever asked of you AND
You asked your body and mind if they would take you on this extraordinary journey and your body and mind answered YES!
I officially rename you the "I CAN MAN!"
Wow you inspire!!
Lisa G.
You're too kind Lisa. You were a big part of my success, and I thank you for that.
