OMG! Ciara's cousin!

It must "run" in the family. Ciara's cousin is running the 135 mile race through Death Valley. I'm actually speechless and have linked up the article she sent me for your, um..enjoyment...and we thought 6 flat miles down and back and a skinny latte was a hard workout!

Gabby--

Thanks for your very kind blog post. There are so many stories to tell from my race at Badwater, which will be found at my blog at http://gregpressler.blogspot.com very soon.

Ciara has been a fabulous supporter, friend, and cousin, and the support of all the Joe Coffee folks is also really great.

For those of you wondering how best to support my Badwater effort, I'd simply direct you to http://www.giveshoes.org.

Thanks again!
