Steady progress

Rick has been making steady progress since he left Melgeorge's Lodge. I have not heard anything from him but received an "OK" signal that he sent from his SPOT tracking device at around 6:00 p.m. At this point, it looks like he has traveled around 92 miles, which would surpass the mileage where he left the race last year. Pray for warmth and strength during the night. It is my understanding that there is an aid station at around mile 108. Kristy

  1. It is minus 7 in Tower with cloud cover so I doubt it gets much colder. Looks like he is getting near the northwest corner of Lake Vermillion. Once he gets there he will have another 10-15 miles I would guess.I say that because I ran a 20 miler along that stretch September of 2002. Lets hope he has got the energy to make it down the home stretch.
