Here’s a story in Newsday about Mark Cundy, who not only has walked Route 66, but has nearly circled the planet in an effort to raise money for cancer research.
There’s not much Route 66 content in the story except for this:
“I had this romantic idea of walking Route 66 the whole way, but in New Mexico, it becomes a dirt path at one point, so I switched to the interstates, which didn’t always make the police too happy,” he said.
Mark “Worldwalker” Cundy’s site is here. He has a photo gallery of United States sights, including the Cadillac Ranch, the Grand Canyon and the Oklahoma City National Memorial.
