BOISE, ID—A runner who set out to cross the entire United States on foot arrived at the Idaho State Capitol this week, 4,337 miles and 201 days into a 5,500-mile journey. According to @noahontherun on Instagram, the day covered 27 miles—the final stretch of a long rural run along Interstate 84—and was met with safety escorts from the Idaho State Police, Boise Police Department, and Ada County Sheriff’s Office.
A small crowd of veterans, families, and relatives came out to welcome him in. With 59 days and roughly 1,163 miles still ahead, @noahontherun says he’s nearly back to full strength.
The run is tagged under #America250, timed to the nation’s semiquincentennial. Boise marked day 201.
Onward, indeed.
