Louis Rodriguez, as many of you know, is a veteran ultrarunner who ran from Staten Island to Miami in the summer of 2001 to raise funds and awareness for Breast Cancer, is at it again. He is participating in the Run Across America, which begins on Saturday, June 12th in California and ends on August 21st in NYC's Central Park. Once again, Agnes Oquendo will be serving as crew, following Louis again in a truck! For those of you who don't know Louis, he is a former Staten Islander now living in Florida.
Check out the website for a profile of Louis at http://www.runacrossamerica2004.com/. There you'll find his bio as well as a reprint of the daily diary originally posted on sirunning during the summer of 2001. They will also post daily standings on all of the entrants. Good luck Louis and Agnes!
