30-40 miles, come on. I don't think so. No Water, no food, average pace 3 miles an hour, rough terrain.

He had his Cheeto's. The TV adds makes it look like you can go forever on Cheeto's. Maybe there was some truth in the advertising :) Not.

Trenton was one lucky kid. Or as a Friend once told me: "Luck is God giving you an even break".

Buddy System. Buddy System. Buddy System.
