Congratulations from all of us at SOURCE! Adventure Runner Richard Bowles finished his Israel National Trail Run in Kibbutz Dan. What an amazing project this was.
After his recovery from a heavy infection, Richard is back on the Israel National Trail, covering more than 150 km of the remaining 400 km in only two days. If all goes well, we expect him to cross the finish-line on May 9!
The medical out for Richard Bowles was a big blow – but not the end of the INT Run. If the recovery goes as planned, Richard will return after one week of resting to the trail.
«My girlfriend Vickie held me up for the final 2km as my leg kept giving way due to the infection.» – Richard Bowles had to take the painful decision to let go of the 12-days challenge.

Richard Bowles is on his way, with 1,009KM and 12 days of running and suffering ahead. We’ll be right at his side and we’ll have daily pictures and videos on Facebook.
