It is only fitting that we hit the 20,000 mile mark on the same day we reach our destination, Rio de Janeiro. Amazing job to overcome the elements and the transition to summer weather, even though it is fast approaching winter in Rio, granted, way closer to the equator and with beaches. More on the beaches later.
We'll savor our arrival for a day or so and then begin the trek back, banking miles as we wait to commence.
The Olympics run from August 3 to August 21 with opening ceremonies on August 5 and closing on the 21st. Soccer/futbol begins a couple of days early.
Some key dates (among others):
Weightlifting (Aug 6 thru Aug 16)
Volleyball (men's & womens, indoor and beach) Aug 6 thru Aug 21
Triathalon (Aug 9 thru Aug 10)
Table Tennis (Aug 6 thru Aug 16)
Swimming (Aug 6 thru Aug 16)
Gymnastics (Aug 6 thru Aug 19)
Golf (Aug 5 thru Aug 21)
Diving (Aug 9 thru Aug 18)
Cycling (Aug 6 thru Aug 20)
Track & Field (Aug 12 thru Aug 21)
Speaking of soccer and futbol, and since we are in South America, the US men's team plays June 11 at 7 pm against Paraguay, coincidentally the first country we will enter on our way back north.
More to come on Rio over the weekend - keep building up the steps as we will need the big bank to make our way back, along a little different route!!!
In the Step Challenge World - you have achieved "JEDI" status!!!
