Atacama Desert Flashback-


Stage 4 was a little longer than a marathon through the infamous "salt flats" in northern Chile. This is a place where you are running on 4-5 inches of crystalized salt and it was so hot the air felt like you were breathing in front of an oven door. Many of the runners got weird sunburn on their noses and chins from the strong reflection off the ground. The only way to get through the day is to think of the positive things in your life like family and friends. For me, I thought of my son Ryan and his daily struggles. He never gives up, so how could I... step by step I finished the day.

Don't forget to submit your artwork or encourage someone you know with AS to submit.
