Darren update:
When we last saw Darren's progress on Thur 7-6, he "lost contact" at the intersection of S.Phila Blvd and W. Bel Air Ave in Aberdeen. For the last few days he would not end his day at a hotel. Instead he would end his day at some random location, probably in an effort to dodge someone who might want to find him and ride with him.
When he "lost contact" the duration was 129:15:52 and the mileage was 1526.0
Today, Fri 7-7, he quit near a Wells Fargo Bank at the intersection of W. Cypress St. and Scarlett Rd in the town of Kennett Square. The duration was 133:15:08 and the mileage was 1569.0. That means he traveled 43.0 miles in 3:59:16, or 10.8 mph. As always, those stats are pretty meaningless with the inconsistancies in their travels.
Because there was no movement on the clock
or mileage for hours and hours, one would think that Darren was done for the day. Nope! I looked tonight and see that he is now on the other side of Philadelphia! The duration clock now reads 138:23:37, so it advanced another 5:08:29. However, the mileage reading still remains at 1569.0. The tracking map shows a straight beeline over the entire city of Philadelphia, and the ended up at the Radisson Hotel Philadelphia Northeast. At least tonight we know where he is staying.
The beeline that the map shows is 44.4 miles long, but they no doubt traveled farther than that, yet the mileage amazingly remained the same. Darren, Darren, Darren. What are you doing? Your integrity is zero. What's my win? Knowing that your sponsors are going to pull everything away, and that your hopes of being a motivational speaker are dashed.
