  1. Tomorrow is the big day.

    Anton will walk into Times Square around 12:30pm.

    3,100 miles (5,000km) walked barefoot since Feb 17, 2024.

    The end of an epic journey.

    Join us if you can. Madison Square Park fountain at noon. Walk the final mile together and arrive in Times Square around twelve thirty.

  2. The roads go on forever out here in Kansas.

    Distance goal met for the day. Back to the ranch tonight for brisket and good company.

  3. 27km completed yesterday.
    Anton walked after dark until about 9:45pm and then back to camp for the night.

    Today we continue on Highway 24 out of Beloit and head toward Glasco, KS.

  4. 10:00am start time today. Anton plans to walk until 1:30 and then we’ll find some place to pull over and watch the EuroCup game.

    Let’s go Oranje

  5. Invited to stay with some locals tonight. Incredibly generous of them to host us out here.

    You know we made use of the pool!

  6. The clouds have been a nice reprieve from the last few days heat. Unfortunately not a lot of protection from the wind and scattered rain.

  7. Woke up to rain at Antelope Lake this morning. Very peaceful listening to that and the birds.

    Today’s forecast calls for rain and thunderstorms until just before lunch followed by windy conditions. Winds of 15-33km/h with gusts up to 56km/h.

    26km completed yesterday.

    Let’s go!

  8. Into the second half of the walk today. Likely another three hours is my estimate.

    Current temps: 34C / 93F.
    Honestly feels decent compared to yesterday.

    The pavement changes up ahead at the Graham county line. We’ll see how that affects the pace going forward.

  9. Finally in bed after making our distances. Walked until 10:00pm. Now resting in two donated motel rooms.

    A cold shower was a treat after two days at ~40C / 104F!

  10. 8:30am start today. Need to get some miles in before the heat and more importantly before the Nederlands vs Austria EuroCup game today!

    Temps will be about the same as yesterday. 39C / 103F

  11. After spending most of Saturday doing chores and errands I’m ready to get back into it today.

    Who’s ready for a great day!? I am.

    It’s going to be a hot one walking today. Wish us luck. 🥵

  12. Made it to the Kansas border via highway 40 at 1:30pm local time. A full six weeks border to barefoot border.

    Congratulations on completing yet another state Anton! Kansas here we come.

  13. We should hit the Kansas border today. That means we’ve spent the past six weeks to the day crossing Colorado (with 5 days off in Denver).

    I’ll miss the mountains. 🏔️

  14. It’s going to be another hot one today! 36C / 97F

    Preparing to get another early start to the day and try and keep cool during the worst of it. Wish us luck!

    Anton should make it to Cheyenne Wells and maybe a bit past by days end. Only another day or two until Kansas border.

  15. Walking until the last of the sunlight today but we’ll make it. Boy was it a hot one today!

    #worldrecord #barefootwalk #colorado #bravementalk

  16. We got the van out of the ditch last night and camped where we were.

    Anton just left to get started early. It’s going to be a hot one again today so walking is now in two shifts, morning and evening.

    I expect we’ll make it to the slightly larger but still tiny town of Kit Carson, CO by tonight.

  17. This may impact walking this afternoon. Keeping an eye on the situation.

    Wish us luck as this trend will likely continue as we cross into Kansas during peak tornado season.

  18. One of the local sheriff’s deputies met Anton at the end of his walk today and generously offered to drive him back to town for the night, saving us the trip.

    We’ll spend the night in Hugo again for the minimal services it has. Looking bleak after this for a while.

  19. Considering a Twitch livestream of our barefoot trek across America. Follow along with me in the support van while we wait for Anton at checkpoints and see America with us.

  20. Walk begins in Genoa, CO today and the goal is 30km. Limon feels like the last biggest town for a while. Filling up on necessities, water and even paid $18 for a needed shower!

  21. Getting ready to hit the road soon. Goal of another 30km/18.6 miles. Passing Limon, CO toward Genoa, CO today. Estimating five more days until the Kansas border.
