They finished! (Final time - 84 hours)

Jon and Stacy arrived in Seadrift around 9:00 pm last night. It wasn't even dark yet! Luckily, Jon did not have a repeat of the "Safari Feet" from 2005, however he does have one broken rib, a few random bruises, and about 400 chigger bites. We got back to Austin at 2:30 this morning after the longest 3-hour drive ever.

Almost in.



The guys are only allowed to get water and ice at each checkpoint along the way.


Jon was covered in caterpillars.

Paddling across San Antonio Bay.


The guys with their land crew: Danny, Belinda, and Marty.


I tagged along at the end.



Receiving their plaques. I am now taking bets on how long it will be before Jon gets drunk enough to give it away.
