Everyone who knows Oli’s Head of School, Will Laughlin, knows that he really, really likes to run. His running has taken him to Africa, Central America, South America, China, Tajikistan, and all over the U.S.  He has records in both Death Valley (fastest off-road traverse) and the Mojave (first to run the Mojave Trail in summer), but has never run them both back to back. So he thought…”what the heck.” This week, he will attempt to be the first person to run across both deserts in one shot during the hot season.

Many of you have asked to be alerted when he attempts something nutty like this. So here you go! To follow his progress live, click this link.
