Sorry for the silence. The internet and the facilities are less than desirable. The “media center” usually consists of a card table in the middle of a field with a generator and various foreign plug adaptors. There are two phone/internet plug ins for ALL the media and the race directors (and me!). Right now I’m trying to send pics and updates, but I’ve been sitting here for 25 minutes with a “good” connection and it’s still working on sending. That’s just the deal in the middle of the country in South America.

The race is going very well, and it has been such a great experience being here camping with everyone. A very “family” type environment where everyone is sharing/talking etc. You can check results and photos on the Trans Andes website. I will do my best to put together a full report soon!
