In to Circle

Wild and Free pulling into Circle and 10:02 this morning. Mark says all the dogs were eating voraciously, which is great. Brent was eating great as well, he gobbled down 2 burgers. The team is cruising along at a slower pace now, as is to be expected after 750 miles. It appears Brent and Sebastian Schnuelle are leapfrogging past each other with alternate run and rest schedules. Schnuelle blew through Circle but is no doubt resting down the trail, Brent will take his rest in Circle.Front to back and left to right, Silver and Ling Ling, Rosie and The Dude, Heckel and Budget, Rocky and Maud.

Comments:
you guys are amazing.....all the photos and updates make me feel almost like I'm there, not 3,000+ miles away! Thanks again for all the hard work from the entire crew keeping us updated....you guys rock!
 
Thanks for all the updates and photos! If we seem like a pack of wild dogs anxiously awaiting every little morsel of news, it's because we are! It's great to see our boy, Taco in the picture -- seems like the wheel dogs don't make it into very many pics -- so we enjoyed getting a good look at our amigo Taco in harness. El trabajo muy bueno, Taco. Perro bueno! ¡Corra como el viento!

We're with you in spirit, Brent and team. Go Wild and Free!!!

Your fans and friends in sunny San Felipe, Mexico

P.S. (For those of you who don't read Spanish it basically says: Very good work, Taco. Good dog! Run like the wind!)
