Day 254: July 16, 2024
ODO: 316,599 It was time for a rest day. Yup, we need those from time to time. We woke up to the threat of rain, a small herd of sheep, two incredibly friendly dogs, and one crotchety donkey. Our steering wheel has been falling apart for months, so today was the day KoKo sewed up…

Day 247: July 9, 2024
ODO: 315,955 It was time to start our “leaving town resupply”: groceries, water (this time we had to flush our tank before we refilled it), and any other small errands. We couldn’t get started until mid day because KoKo had a meeting. That’s right, we’re still doing our bay area job, just at a much…

Day 240: July 2, 2024
ODO: 315,067 It’s been way too long since we put some miles on the ol’ Taco! It feels so good! We wrapped up our work in the Bay on a high note. Our project is in a good place and we will be continuing to support them remotely. And no more 12-14 hour days! But…

Day 233: June 25, 2024
ODO: 315,043 The rain had moved past Ensenada by the time we got to the edge of town. Unlike the racecar, we could choose our path through town so we headed to our hotel parking as quickly as possible. Parked, we all ran to the finish line, we didn’t want to miss a second of…

Day 226: June 18, 2024
ODO: 315,043 Once we turned onto pavement it was obvious the truck needed something. To drive straight the wheel was turned 15 degrees off center. We knew there was a gas station coming up in twenty or so miles, so our plan was to stop there (hopefully they had gas), and give the Tacoma an…

Day 219: June 11, 2024
ODO: 315,043 But what is it like inside the car? We’re glad you asked! Visors down, dump the clutch….here we go! We bomb through the wash leading into Loreto. We got in the car a solid hour and a half before we expected to. In the daylight!! We run down the wash and into town,…

Day 212: June 4, 2024
ODO: 315,043 What do I do once I finish watching Berne speed away down a rocky wash? I give the race team that just got out of the car their lunch, help pack up our pit, and get on the road. My job is to follow the racecar north, along the highway. I carry as…

Day 205: May 28, 2024
ODO: 315,043 What a week its been! We’ve been pushing really hard, and staying at the office until 9 or 10pm almost every night. We’ve had some cool milestones thought: We hit day 200! And we’re still happy with our choices We wrapped a major project at our temp job. It was really exciting. Maybe…

Day 198: May 21, 2024
ODO: 315,043 Still doing the long days, but allergy season has kicked in with a vengeance! Part III of our spotlight on pre-running continues now: After getting stuck in the Helltrain several times, we developed a bit of a technique to getting out. You see, while prerunning in a work truck, we’re super cautious about…

Day 191: May 14, 2024
ODO: 315,043 In case you were curious, we’re still running 10+ hour days, and the weather is just lovely. Part II Of our spotlight on pre-running continues now: We do not pre-run fast. Sometimes pre-running feels like punishment. Sometimes we ask ourselves WTF are we doing out here. Sometimes we go through sections of racecourse…
