Flashback to day 100 in the USA - Singing on the bridge

At 16:35 US time (21:35 GMT) on August the 8th 2011 I tweeted the following: "Crossing the George Washington Bridge into NYC. 36 miles done. Very tired!". Here is another previously unpublished clip from that time. It's not the best quality but it is a reminder of the brilliant camaraderie that got me to the finish line on time.


That was the last I was to see of Carlton until the finish line at Coney Island some 9.5 hours later. How on earth he got a 35 foot RV through Manhattan and safely to Coney Island is anyone's guess! This image was taken by him from the RV.  


Below are a few more images taken from The George Washington Bridge with 25 miles still to go.
