USA 1 June: Bluff, UT - Tsegi, AZ

This morning a few of the team began the day with a morning watching the sunrise in Valley of the Gods.

As always, it was truly beautiful.

The power of nature can sometimes be overwhelming.

We stayed as long as our schedule allowed before departing for our share of today's miles.

Jermony and Vladimir got to run in some of the most scenic places in the US.

Vajra also had a chance to enjoy one of the most unique and remarkable places in America.

There has been lots of rain out here so there are wild flowers in abundance.

Vajra was just loving it out here today.

We couldn't stop him from running.

Along the way we met lots of tourists who were very interested in our event.

Our first appointment was with the children of the Monument Valley Head Start program who ran with us.

They met us on the banks of the San Juan River and ran with us for about a mile - all up hill.

Everyone made sure they each got a T-shirt.

Cleal Bradford set up the event for us and made sure we had everything we needed.

We stopped lots of traffic but nobody seemed too concerned.

There was quite a large hill as soon as we started which was a little challenging.

Jeremoy and Mark then got into some serious running towards Monument Valley.

Our day with the women's team started with a big desire from Palash for coffee so we went to the closest cafe to our hotel. We took the RV not knowing that the closest cafe was only a minute away.

To our great surprise we were greeted with smiles and coffee on the house, which was greatly needed by some. After that we drove through the majestic beauty of Monument Valley.

It seemed for us that we were driving through a wonderland.

Our next stop was at a school on a Navaho reservation........ We were greeted by adorable children from the Rural Utah Head Start Program.

While we waited for the runners to arrive with the torch Surya and Kshetragna entertained the children by teaching them Russian.

The kids got really excited when the runners finally arrived, so the runners did a lap of honor round the playground.

These children were a bit too young to play our usual "guess our country" game, so we taught them to say "thank you" in all our different languages

Performing the World Harmony Run song.

Runnning out of the ceremony the women's team started a long afternoon run.

They were scheduled to run the next 40 miles of the route.

Palash and Abhejali head out of monument Valley towards Kayenta, AZ.

Palash is consuming a lot of fruit out here.

Kalyanika and Maria started their run in Kayenta.

Watching the runners going by.

Navajo land.

We camped the night at Gouldings and this was our view.

A natural arch right by our campsite - stunning.

Some of us slept on the rocks under the stars.

Salil took an opportunity to ask Palash about her experiences out on the road.

At every campground we go to people are alway interested in what we are doing.

Some of the many people who stop by to offer us encouragement in our journey.

One of our camping friends.

This is one of the most scenic days on our entire trip so here's some more photos to share the experience.

These are our tents.
