Update #3 from the road as @jusup11 follows Nels’ incredible journey to break the world record running across America!

As Nels pushed through the Sierra Nevada mountains, the elevation and lack of oxygen began to take a toll. But through it all, he kept remembering his why—he’s out there to honor fallen Navy SEAL Chris Campbell’s wish to help veterans.

That reminder gives Nels the strength to push through even the toughest miles, reminding him that this journey is bigger than himself.
