Erik cruises through a badlands area in southern South Dakota.

Bails of hay dot the landscape.

So cool in shades.

Filling our hats with ice is like air conditioning for the runner.

Shadowman.

Grasshoppers abound. The roads were filled with them and we had to step very lightly.

Yuyudhan is a Winner!

A bunch of kids getting ice cream at the Frosty Boy take a moment to meet the runners and hold the torch.

Thanks to the Country Club Motel & RV Park for a room and valuable ice.

Thanks to the Warrior Inn for a room for the women's team.
