Patagonia SWAG.  It’s HERE!

Box waiting outside my front door.  It all suddenly got VERY REAL.

2 roller bags & a backpack – all personalized, embroidered names on the outside.  10 days out from my New Zealand departure, received our Team luggage.  Woo-hoo!

Email communications now happening daily.  What to pack, what to expect, weather conditions, airport pics & upcoming hotel accommodations.  Food restrictions anyone?

Super exciting, super overwhelming.

Gonna travel the GLOBE!  West from my Colorado home, ‘cross the Pacific.  Africa, Europe, the Atlantic, every continent.  26.2 miles on ALL Earth’s major land masses.  WOW!

Airline apps loaded on my Phone.  Booking confirmations input.

Reservation set for Ro with his Rover family, a short mile away.

Large roller bag packed for Antarctica.  Sleeping bag, REI liner, crampons, beanies, gloves, socks, extra shoes – and so much FOOD.  Will not go hungry, bottom of the World 🙂

Ash & Tom to meet me in New York & trade out luggage (race #6, North America).  Plan in place… just gotta finish FIVE marathons first.  Never have I ever.  Yikes!

Crazy excited.  Triple 8 Quest 2020!
