Several quicker folks had issues today with shin splints - very painful swelling in the shins - caused by the long, steep descents. My cautious pace downhill has helped me avoid them completely. Now if only I could get rid of this cold...
Tomorrow we reach Germany, and pass through beautiful places like Füssen that Claire and I have visited before. But 30 more Austrian miles to go before we reach the border.

Please shout hello to my distant Austrian cousins on your way, through, Russell!
Oh yes I remember the beautiful Neuschwanstein castle and sun bathing by the river Lech !! Tell Fussen hello from me and have a beer, you earned it!
Hi from Austin, TX- Andy and Shay here. Incredible journey thus far, we are happily following along with you. Best wishes.
What an amazing journey!
Enjoy the "Nepali Flat."
Russ: This looks like Alpe d'Huez. Did you see Lance on his bike? You are truly amazing!
Cheers Russell. Your stamina never ceases to amaze me. I used one of your lines the other day "this too shall pass" and thought of you.
You're an inspiration to us all!
