It's only been a few days since I've left the team (or was left in Chicago) and I already miss you. I'm so grateful for the experiences that I had and will treasure them in my heart for sure.
Wishing you all the best: strong legs, powerful smiles, great running routes, and touching experiences throughout America.
Peace,
Erik

Erik, I just wanted to say thanks for all you do! I work for the YMCA Business Center and we were sent these pictures because of the Southdale YMCA's participation in this event. I smiled when I recognized you (and Ginny)! Best wishes, Lindsay Olson WBL class of 1996

Hello America :) How are you guys doing? Looking at your reports it seems you are busy enough. For the last weeks we've been in Eastern Europe and it's simply fantastic. Now we headed south and it's getting warmer and warmer. One of the best days we spent in Moldova where we had some 13 (!) meetings scheduled at a distance of about 110 km. You can see the pictures here. Greetings from the whole European international team. Look forward seeing you in August for the final ceremony. All the best
Martin Leitner and the team
