Whitehorse, YK

Pulled into Whitehorse, YK last night .. parted ways with my father yesterday in haines jct. He is headed to haines to fly back to WI. Glad to have him along for AK it was 1000 miles of insanity to sum it up.
Sylvain and I are gorging for the day in whitehorse, if you have ever been away from civilization for a couple days or a week with food meant to just get you through(Rice and oatmeal) you probably know the feeling 1st sighting a grocery store...Unexplainable....
It has been a long 2.5 weeks and have already endured alot of obstacles some expected some not. The last 400 miles have been really exhausting not so much physicly but mentally straining for me... its been hard but in no way detered from my initial intentions. Its really like running a marathon everyday... you start the day off with all the motivation in the world by mid-marathon you are in cruise control contimplating every aspect of life then by 4/5-marathon all you think of is finishing, food, and then sleep. There has always been that feeling of anxiety in a day for me that consists of a day just lounging, and I guess after a day of cycling, and working toward an ultimate goal, its all euphoric.
Again thanks to those who keep in contact with me I really really appreciate the E-Mails....
