During the lay-over in Santiago, Chile, this woman gave Nikolas a donation for Operation Warm! How cool is that?!
 The boys arrived safely in Punta Arenas, Chile after a long journey; traveling went smoothly and Nikolas is his happy self! Tomorrow, a meeting about the marathon on the crystal desert!
 Here is Nikolas in his Antarctica gear! He's not there quite yet; it's a long way to the tip of South America!
 And he's off ... Safe travels, Nikolas! We are so proud of you! xoxo
Thanks for the great article, GeekMom blogger for Wired! You are awesome!
http://www.wired.com/geekmom/2013/02/9-year-old-marathon-boy/  Just one day until Nikolas leaves for his Antarctic marathon! Nikolas is very excited to run his next marathon amongst the penguins, to travel out of North America for the first time, and to raise more money for snuggly, new coats! Go, Nikolas, go!
 Just two days until Nikolas leaves! So many people are excited about what Nikolas is doing; he had four interviews today! We hope the coverage generates more warm, new coats for kids who need them!
 Today, Nikolas was interviewed by ABC Action News! His story was on the six o'clock news … Thanks, Action News, for helping us spread the word about keeping kids warm! Please watch! http://abclocal.go.com/wpvi/story?section=news/local&id=8997697
 Only five days until Nikolas leaves! Here's a picture of him trying out his gear.
 Just one week from today, Nikolas and his dad will be off to South America—and then to Antarctica! We are so excited for the second marathon!
