Pushed on towards Stuttgart, Arkansas

8:45 a.m. CST – We drove back to Marianna, AR, where we stopped yesterday, to continue the push towards Stuttgart, AR.

9:00 a.m. CST – Averaging 12 mph, I was able to make it to Monroe, AR in about two hours. The pushing was hard. The temperature stayed near one hundred degrees and the asphalt was soaking in ever degree and giving it back.

11:00 a.m. CST – I took about a 5 minute break to rehydrate my body by drinking water and to replenish my electrolytes by drinking a sports drink. Its very important to stay hydrated when you work out. Always have water or a sports drink and be sure to drink before you feel thirsty. Even just a little dehydration can affect your performance.

12:15 p.m. CST – We arrived in Clarendon, AR after pushing for approximately 10 more miles after my break. In Clarendon, we took an hour to eat, drink, and rest.

1:15 p.m. CST – The next 45 minutes was spent pushing the 10 miles to Roe. There was a considerable amount of traffic on the highway, so I had to be careful and go extra slow. Unfortunately, there was swampland on each side of the highway with hardly any shoulder to wheel on.
2:00 p.m. CST – After taking a 5 minute break to get some liquids in my system, I pushed on towards Ulm, AR; approximately 7 miles away.

2:45 p.m. CST – We arrived in Ulm and took another five minute water and Gatorade break. It was so hot and humid; I had to be careful not to dehydrate myself. After the break, we started the last six miles into Stuttgart, AR.

3:15 p.m. CST – After an exhausting day, we arrived in Stuttgart, AR. We loaded up our equipment and drove back to the hotel.

4:30 p.m. CST – After working hard all day, all I wanted to do was rest and get some food. So we took about an hour and ate some dinner.

6:00 p.m. CST – We tried to do some work after dinner, but unfortunately, we kept having technical difficulties. The Internet still was not working, so Andy was unable to upload the today’s pictures. In addition to the Internet not working, we could not get our new scanner to work. We wanted to scan a newspaper article about the Tour. There has been so much publicity about the tour. Its great that the media has embraced this Revolutions tour. The media attention really helps spread the word about getting fit and living healthy.
11:30 p.m. CST – We went to bed.
