Speaking with Ray Zahab of Running the Sahara

Hey guys, I just spoke with Ray Zahab who ran across the Sahara desert and set a world record running to the South Pole. Seems like he wants me to work with him... check it out on my blog

Very cool, Kat!  I watched that documentary when the ran it.  Can't remember what channel it was, but I saw it last month.  Those three guys endured quite a bit completing that expedition.  Didn't know he did one to the South Pole also.  Hope everything works out well.

That really sounds cool, Kat!  Good luck!

 

 

Immer, any day you can quote Princess Bride is a good day! 

 

 

My reaction was more of the sort: 

 

 

"If you want to know, follow the white rabbit."

Let me try this again: where does the autograph line start?

 

It's absolutely awesome! We'll catch you on media once again, most likely! CONGRATS!

I don't know how you get yourself into this stuff! But "run with it" and have fun.

Runnin' out here in the rain.
Just one more mile, if only you could fly.
