Mark,
Big time hooorahs! from your free-livin' long-runnin' friend here in the Whites. I last saw you on rat jaw, hiking in different directions. You know what it takes, brother. Make the North proud. What you do there--no one can take it away from you. I'll be on Trail in two weeks on my own challenge. As Gary told me before loop 5, with a message from Eliza, "Do it."

Tell Danny Ripka that He Rocks!
 
 
Danny, we're tracking your progress and sending messages to each other as we get news of how you're doing.   We're all very excited for you and will be thinking about you this week as you make your trek around that loop and also deeper inside yourself.   I can't wait to hear your reflections on the experience.
 
Enjoy it, even the pain, it's all part of the journey.   Stay strong, stay healthy and stick to your plan.
 
Leesa and Wesley

Hello Mink,

We have been trying to send a message for a few days but it keeps coming
back. Here's hoping this one gets through. The address is different so this
might work. Hope the feet are feeling better. Mum and Dad arrived today,
they leave on the 20th. The house will be locked up when you return, the
scaffold has now been removed.

Hope you are feeling great, keep on running.

Say hello to Jack. Tell him I have a laser light spoon for him to eat his
cornflakes. Wish your mother a happy birthday for Monday. We got your phone
message but will think about when we come down. You will probably need a
good sleep when you return.

Hope this address works

 Love from us.

From: "Andrews, Thomas


Hey Danny: I am watching with interest as you will be breaking my record.   If all goes well for you it should be easy for you to do that.   The record is pretty weak, 388 miles.
 
By the way, some cheap advice.   Don't pay too much attention to Rimas at first as I have seen him run 100 miles per day for 7-8 days straight and do over 900 in a 10 day race - he will wear you out if you go after him early.   And as you probably know he is coming back from a knee surgery so who knows (not even Rimas knows) if he can keep it up for 6 days; but he is tough as nails mentally and very experienced at multi-days.
 
I hope you and Pat enjoy the experience of the 6 day, Eva and I did; me more than Eva.
 
God speed; WE WIN & have fun!

Hallo Uwe!
Shootingstar, schon am dritten Tag hast du es geschafft; Großaufnahmen von Uwe Postler im roten Regenanzug. Jetzt können den Sponsorverträgen für die nächsten Rennen nichts mehr im Wege stehen.
Spaß beiseite, ich hoffe, dass du den Lauf trotz des Regens in vollen Zügen genießen kannst.
