    Teach's Pilgrimage

    Teach completed the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage today. This was her summer vacation, instead of a cross country ride. She walked 550 miles across northern Spain. A friend asked her to do it with her, then that person dropped out after day 5. She continued on by herself, making friends along the way, as she always does.

    Fantastic accomplishment on a personal level, but also as a friend watching her on a daily basis. The final walk today was amazing to see. Her friends filmed her.

    Just sharing with her fellow riders.

    If her friend dropped out after Day 5, do you know how long it took her to complete the 550mi Duke? That's quite a feat!

    Been following her on face book, I believe she started June 9th and finished yesterday. Been very interesting following it, she is a wonderful ambassador for the US, people were donating , per paypal and she was spreading the wealth as she walked, helping people out buying lunches, ice cream...

    Yes it has been a blessing following her trek, then watching her emotional triumph crossing the finish line.
