See where Chris ran in his first journey crossing the United States on foot and where he will cycle his second attempt. He is always looking for running or cycling partners to come out and put in a few miles with him, so if you see that he will be close to your town reach out to him.

If you have a place that he can stay and see that he is coming through your town please reach out to him as well.

Finally, if you are an educator at a school, Chris enjoys doing talks with schools throughout the country, just reach out to him and he will plan on being at your school to inspire the kids.
