Longer then we thought...

Turns out that the first day of our journey is going to be a little longer then were bargaining for. We were planning on the running roughly 34 miles to Buffalo tomorrow but that was measured from the state line. We will actually run from Capitol which is going to add about 6 miles.

So...long story short, we will start this journey with a 40 miler. More than we wanted but I guess you have roll with the punches out here.

Roughly our run to buffalo tomorrow will take about 8 hours. We hope to be done by 2:00 PM if we start at 6:00 AM

Talking to Ruth and Bill Rosencranz who are hosting us tonight on a ranch 10 miles from Capitol, MT it was easy to remember why we are doing this run. Bill himself has lost 5 brothers and sisters to cancer. Amazing and sad!

I'll be posting again tomorrow night after our run. I better get going for now, it seems that the more I write the more nervous I get so I'm going to cut this of for now.

PS - We had a blast today talking to the Sky Boys Ranch about our adventure! The 23 guys seemed really excited about what were doing and really seemed to grasp the idea of how and why we are doing this! Thanks for having us guys!
