How many deserts must young Ben cross?

. . . Before they call him a man?
The answer my friend
Is blowing in the wind
The answer is . . .

He's at it again, first the Gobi Desert, then the Saharan, now some God forsaken place in Chile!

My cousin, the family's obsessive over-achiever, is also blogging his experience at

One good quip from his blog: "Stage 3 should have had a sign posted at the start: “Abandon all hope ye who enter here.” Dante would’ve written an appendix to his Inferno if he could have witnessed today’s stage."

After stage four he's in ninth place. Seems to be consistent with his previous amazing efforts. And oh yeah, this time he sprained both ankles early on.

Ben, what did they do to you as a child?

Cheers bud.
