A few days ago, Eric compared this journey to the plot in a movie. Yesterday, he found himself in a situation much like the one he had described. He stood on a starting line, a huge opportunity before him, and HE TOOK OFF RUNNING!!

Eric and his team are now racing fearlessly on toward Palenque, the first of many stops on their race.
Check in soon to hear how things are going and what Eric is learning along the way. Meanwhile, see http://prayers.theworldrace.org to view a few more photos of Eric’s team.
