We're three weeks in, and we've gone 1705.8 miles and climbed 120,077ft. That makes our average 81.2 miles per day, 12.5mph, and 6000ft of ascent each day. We have 2078 miles left in our route of 3784 miles. (We will end up doing more than that because not everything is directly on the route. Western Express is 1589mi, however we did about 1655mi.)
We're done with the west, and headed toward easier terrain for at least a few days. I'm ready for a break from climbing, although I'll miss the scenery and I'm not looking forward to the humidity. We're under halfway in terms of mileage, however I think we can be finished in 3 more weeks. We've heard that the hills in Kentucky and Virginia can be tough, but we're getting stronger every day and we don't have the long climbs anymore.
