Congratulations, Team! We made it through Central America, earned our first medal, and we are now in Columbia. Only 11 more regions to go!
ETA: based on our earlier conversation, I guess I can now wear my t-shirt
Heck yeah! I am wearing mine tomorrow! South America here we come.

Week 7 Update
It was a big week for us... congratulations to all for completing Region 1!!
During the week, we accomplished the following:
For Region 2, it is 3,094 miles long (23% longer than Region 1), and there are only three countries: Columbia (806 mi), Ecuador (586 mi), and Peru (1,702 mi, a.k.a. forever). Although these countries will all take a good amount of time to complete, the good news is that Google Street View seems to work, so we won't be running blind anymore.
As of last night, we were already 164 miles into Columbia and will likely cross the halfway point in Columbia on Friday or Saturday. We have a CRAW total of 2,676 miles completed, and the prediction model is showing that we should finish Region 2 on about 12/11 (ignore the best fit line in the graph below as it needs a few more days of data points to become accurate). For the entire CRAW, the prediction model is a week or so under the 1 year 6 month mark based on our average daily team mileage (55.7 miles per day).
If you have mileage to post from last week (through yesterday), please try to post before the end of today such that you get full credit.

We are getting close to completing our run through Columbia with only about 110 miles to go. Based on our average Friday and Saturday mileage, it will be tight if we finish by end of day Saturday, but we will either finish late Saturday or early Sunday. If anybody hasn't posted mileage for the week so far, it would be good to post now such that it increases our likelihood of completing Columbia tomorrow.
