Tracking Keir across the desert in Chile

Category: Chilerdonat @ 2:14 pm

My Brother-in-law Keir Oxley is at it again, doing another “Racing the Planet” 126 mile extreme race through the desert in Chile (his blog is available here).

Last time we tracked him through the Sahara Desert.

They are raising money for earthquake victims.  Again we are tracking him using a TT-1900, which weighs 5.9 ounces, and reports world-wide, every hour.

So far he has gone 22 miles (we show about 19 since the tracking device only transmits once an hour and he’s not traveling in a straight line):

I’ll try to keep the site updated with tracking screen shots.

Good luck Keir!

Rob.
