Hi PDX,

That's an impressive bout that your housemate did--4 months is a wicked pace, especially alone. Sam will be traveling southbound. The other two record holders travelled northbound. Any sponsorship ideas?


My housemate didn't actually mean to solo it - he had a partner for the first 50 (!) miles, but he got super nervous about having to trust others for water drops while in the desert. Plus, the pace was way out of his partner's league.

Along the way, he dropped more than 30 pounds in bodyweight.

As for sponsorship ideas....REI? Columbia Sportswear? Keen? How about Garmin - they seem to love this kinda thing?

I was at EAA in Oshkosh a couple of weeks ago...EVERYTHING was "sponsored" - Air conditioning brought to you by Carrier; Bathroom fixtures brought to you by Kohler; Toilet Paper brought to by Kimberly Clark....NONE of these companies have anything to do with aviation, but understand that they will get a ton of exposure by just having their name out there.

So, my advice - look at EVERYTHING that has to be provided, and see who can give you varying levels of support...
