Day 15 - Sunday, June 2, 2013

Toward evening as Steve reached Skull Pass in Utah, his feet and his body told him it was time to end his Run Across America for Autism Awareness.  He simply could not continue.  As difficult as this was for Steve, he realized he had nothing left in his weakened body to maintain this grueling run.  His body was not absorbing nutrition and his feet could not support him. 

Steve's spirit is down as his goal to run across America a second time was not to be.  I know we all support Steve in his effort and commend him for attempting what rarely has been accomplished.  We appreciate what he, his road crew (Gary and Mike), his sponsors, support team, and his legions of followers have done to raise awareness for Autism.  Steve is truly a remarkable man.  God bless you and all of your supporters, Steve. 

"May you run and not be weary and may the road you travel always bring you home."

Thank you for following Steve on his journey.  He looks forward to visiting with you.  Your prayers and your support have made all the difference.

  2. After a while you will understand that this is not a failure. You can take revenge by running coast to coast for a second time.
